Abstract

Statistically about 50percent of road accident is due to the driver drowsiness. In this paper, we describe a real time online protocol that controls the vehicle depends on the driver fatigue level. A direct technique is to analyse the EEG (Electroencephalography) signal. An electrode is placed in driver scalp and acquired the EEG signal of driver at every moment, for feature extraction the FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) is used. Then, the feature extracted EEG signal is given to the microcontroller. It can detect the various threshold level of the driver fatigue, then compare and depends upon the driver fatigue level it can control the speed of the vehicle at certain limit. The gas sensor is used to detect the ac gas leakage ,depend on the sensing signal the microcontroller open a car window automatically, in order to reduce the Freon ac gas it mixed with the co2 gas.
