Driver Drowsiness Detection System Using Convolutional Neural Networks Own Project To improve road safety, a real-time sleepiness detection system utilizing Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) was developed. On the basis of eye blink rate, yawn frequency, and head position, the system assesses the driver's condition (awake, sleepy, or weary) and analyzes live video feeds to identify face landmarks (mouth, eyes). The model, which was developed using OpenCV, and Python. put an emphasis on preventing accidents by integrating an audiovisual alarm system to warn sleepy drivers. Skills
