INTRODUCTION • According to national survey in UK and USA it is observed that the driver fatigue annually causes  1000 crashes.  1500 deaths.  7100 injuries. • Majority of road accidents observed were caused by eye-closure of one-half second to as long as 2 to 3 seconds. • It is said that the normal human eye blinks lasts 0.2 to 0.3 second. Page 2

EXISTING SYSTEM.. • Use of stimulation drinks like tea or coffee. • Take some tablets to prevent sleeping.

In order to avoid the disadvantages of the existing system IBM developed a software to determine whether the driver can respond alertly enough . The device is named as

“ARTIFICIAL PASSENGER” Page 4

What is artificial passenger? • Artificial Passenger is broadly used to prevent accident. • Artificial Passenger device is also used for entertainment such as it telling jokes and asking question .

What is artificial passenger? • Artificial Passenger component establishes interface with other drivers very easily . • If the driver gets a heart attack or he is drunk it will send signals to vehicles nearby about this so driver there become alert. • Therefore AP is a Natural language companion and acts as a Life safety system.

About Artificial Passenger….. • Artificial intelligence based companion • Resident in the software and chips embedded in the automobile dashboard. • The heart of the system is a conversation planner that holds a profile of one or more drivers including details of his interests and profession. Page 7

About Artificial Passenger….. • A microphone picks up the driver’s answer and breaks it down to separate words with speech recognition software. • An in-built camera placed on the dash board keeps track of the driver’s facial state. • A voice analyzer looks for signs of tiredness. Page 8

About Artificial Passenger….. • If the driver reply clearly and quickly then he is alert. • If the response is slow the device assumes that he is sleepy. • If he is not active the AP will try to get the attention of the driver by even sprinkling water onto the driver’s face Page 9

Mobile Indicator Device… The driver can answer a call using the touch sensitive wheel.

Components • Automatic Speech Recognition(ASR)  Decodes the driver voice using NLP • Natural Language Processor  Process the decoded signal.  Produces variants of responses according to the driver’s input • Driver Analyzer  Receives the voice data and it measure the time of response Page 15

Components • Conversational Planner(CP)  Instruct the natural language processor to produce the response • Alarm  If the CP receives information that driver is asleep it activates the alarm system. • External Service Provider  The AP also has a wireless internet which is used to constantly update the NLP library

Working • Aiming a single camera at the head of the driver. • Detecting frequencies of the head movements of the driver within a selected time period. • Determine frequency of eye blinking and eye closing. Page 18

Working • Determine frequency of yawing if the driver within selected time period. • Generating an alarm signal if the above frequencies exceeds a selected threshold value

Page 19

APPLICATIONS… • Prevent driver from falling asleep during long trips. • Open and close the window of a car automatically. • It will answer a call for the driver. • Artificial Passenger is also used for entertainment.

Page 20

FUTURE APPLICATIONS • In the future, based on road, weather and traffic conditions, AP will provide the driver with shortest time routing. • This is done with the help of GPS and speech generator.

Page 21

CONCLUSION • Artificial passenger is an effective mechanism to prevent driver fatigue.

• Successful implementation of artificial passenger would decrease road accidents to a great extent.
