About Project

The project was inspired by the need to improve road safety by addressing the dangers of drowsy driving, a significant cause of accidents.

Various factors can lead to driver drowsiness, including mental fatigue, alcohol consumption, and other contributors. When a driver becomes drowsy, they may experience microsleep episodes, which are brief, unintended seconds-long bouts of sleep, significantly elevating the risk of traffic accidents.

The video illustrates a driver experiencing microsleep, during which the driver is unaware that they have briefly fallen asleep, ultimately leading to a traffic accident. This poses a significant danger to both the driver and others on the road.
