Abstract

This study presents the development of a smart driver drowsiness detection system using Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) technology based on heart rate monitoring. Traffic accidents are frequently caused by factors such as drowsiness, sleep deprivation, alcohol consumption, or drug use. Among these, microsleep—a brief and involuntary lapse into sleep lasting a few seconds—poses significant risks, often resulting in fatal consequences while driving. The objective of this research is to implement the LSTM algorithm as an early warning system for microsleep in drivers and to develop a drowsiness detection device equipped with a pulse heart rate sensor. The LSTM algorithm, known for its ability to model long-term dependencies, has proven highly effective in time series prediction. It is utilized here for real-time analysis of drivers’ heart rate data.
