Abstract

See full text

A system for detecting a drowsy driver includes an axle with a sensor for measuring the movement of the axle and for producing an axle signal. The sensor typically measures any or all of the following: the lateral acceleration of the axle, the fore-aft acceleration of the axle, or the vehicle speed. A central processing unit compares the axle signal derived from the sensor measurements to a pre-determined drowsy threshold and an indicator indicates to the driver that drowsiness has been detected when the axle signal exceeds the pre-determined drowsy threshold.
