Abstract - The Digital Image Processing (DIP) is vast and
important research challenge, there are many fields where
digital image processing is use for number applications.Oneof
them is to detect the drowsy state of human. The recent boom
in smartphone industry has plenty of potential and can usefor
various applications. So if the digital image processing
technique embedded with smartphone then we can have new
portable product which will be efficient for detection of
driver’s fatigue.
In this paper, we will represent the design approachtodevelop
the android platform based application and IoT based
hardware, which is advanced product related to driver safety
on the roads using combination of mobile computing and
digital image processing and controller. Our proposed system
will detect driver drowsiness and gives warning in form of
alarm. And traffic collision information system will
continuously monitor the distance from vehicle which is done
by the ultrasonic sensor. If the ultrasonic sensor detects the
obstacle then it will accordingly warns the driver.If somehow
collision occurs it will detect collision using impact sensor and
provide emergency help service for driver.
Key Words: Android, DIP, Drowsy Driving, IoT,
Smartphone, Traffic Collision.
1. INTRODUCTION
Nowadays due to easier EMI options people are able to
afford cars, bikes thus adding to the traffic day by day. Even
some manufactures have adopted various marketing
schemes. This not only adds to the traffic but also increases
the risk of deaths due to accidents and vehicle collision. Due
to heavy traffic on some roads so that emergency vehicles
can’t arrive on time so that leading to more deaths due to
road accidents.
According to Forbes report, an estimated 5000 lives lost in
just USA by drowsy driving, at an annual cost of something
like $109 billion.
The AAA says that 20% of all fatal accident in the USA are
due to drowsiness, we can only imagine what stats are like
for India which has highest road accident in world at 18%.
This project uses Internet of Things(IOT) as a solutiontothe
problem of accident detection and collision avoidance using
present day technologies and also upcoming technologies
like Global Positioning System (GPS), Global System for
Mobile (GSM), Smartphones.
The main objective behind this project is to develop a
nonintrusive system which can detect drowsy state of the
driver and issue a warning. Driver drowsiness detection
technologies can reduce the risk of a catastrophic accident
by warning the driver of his/her fatigue. Thedevelopmentof
technologies for preventing fatigue is a major challenge. To
prevent drowsiness of driver during driving requires a
method for accurately detecting a fall in driver alertness.
Micro sleeps which are short period of sleeps lasting 2 to 4
seconds are good indicator of fatigue state. Thus by
constantly observing the eyes and mouth movement of the
driver it can detect the drowsy state of driver early enough
to avoid accident.
2. LITERATURE REVIEW
2.1 Research on Internet of Things for Smart Cities
The Internet of Things (IoT) shall be able to implement
perfectly and consistent with large number of different and
heterogeneous systems. Building a generalize architecture
for the IoT is the complex task, because IoT has extremely
large variety of devices, link layer technologies, and services
that may be involved in such a system.[1]
The Internet of Things (IoT) is newly adapted technology
which hasplenty of room to grow, because internet ofthings
have huge amount of application. This generation is rapidly
moving toward cities so that cities must have to grow them
self for this exodus. So more people in city needs better life
style, good housing and quality infrastructure. HencetheIoT
which is widely used in monitoring and controlling of
different parameter. As we know, The Internet of Things
have many applications, so that produce tons of data, hence
the data management is challenge in IoT based system as
data comes from different location in the network.
SMART CITY CONCEPT AND SERVICES
According to Pike Research on Smart Cities, the Smart City
Market is estimated at 1000 of billion dollars by 2020, with
an annual spending of nearly 16 billion. This market consist
of different service sectors, Smart E-Governance, Mobility,
Smart Utilities, Smart Buildings, and Smart Environment.

2.2 Real-Time Monitoring and Prediction of Driver
Fatigue
This real-time nonintrusive monitoring and prediction
driver fatigue system uses two charge coupled camera with
infrared illuminator to monitor the driver face without
interfering the driving.
This system validates under real-life, real-time drowsy
conditions with human having different ethnicbackgrounds,
genders and ages; and under different lighting conditions.
This system founds reliable, robust and efficientfordifferent
ethnic people and provide timely warningondriver’sfatigue.

2.3 Drowsy Driver Warning System Using Image
Processing
Driver in-alertness is one of the important cause for most
accident related to the vehicles crashes. Driver drowsiness
resulting from sleep disorders is an important factor in the
increasing number of the accidents on today’sroads.Fatigue
is human parameter that shows he/she is tired. The best
remedy for fatigue is proper sleep.
Drowsy driver warning system can form to possibly reduce
the accidents related to driver’s drowsiness. By placing the
camera inside the car, we can monitor the face of the driver
and look for the eye-movements. The eye is main facial
parameter to monitor because if driver is gettingmicrosleep
then it will closed eyesfor few secondsor longerwhichisthe
sign of driver drowsiness. So in such case system will alert
the driver hence accident can tackle.
This paper describes how to find and track the eyes. Also it
explain a method to determine if the eyes are open orclosed.
The main criterion of this system is that this system must be
non-intrusive and system should start when the vehicle is
turned on without driver initiation the system. Driver
shouldn’t provide any feedback to system. The system must
operate regardless of the colour, size texture of face and
different illumination. [3]
3. PROBLEM FORMULATION
Road accidents have been a major issue for most of the
countries. Studies shows that the number of deaths due to
road accidents is increasing year by year making safety a
major concern. Driver drowsiness is one of the major cause
of road accident in which driver’s lack of concentration on
driving and traffic due to fatigue. Internet of Things (IoT)
coupled with Smartphone technology, Image processing
algorithm, aims to minimize the deaths that occurs
worldwide due to road accidents and to increase the life
span and mortality rate of person, proposedSystemisdesign
to reduce road accident due to the drowsy driving .It will
deal with the major issues about driver fatigue and Collision
detection and suggest remedies.
4. PROPOSED METHODOLOGY
IoT based Drowsy Driving Warning and Traffic collision
Information System will consists of following methodology-
Drowsy driving warning system will be implement on
smartphone with the help of one of image processing
algorithm. Driver`s face expression such as eye blinking ,
mouth position will continuously monitor by smartphone
camera .If the driver face expressions match with drowsy
parameter then smartphone will alert the driver. For
emergency situation, driver can call for medical assistance
by speaking “help” so smartphone will detect this command
and will sent help message to nearest hospital with its
current location.

Traffic collision will detects by impact measuring sensor.
When certain degree of impact occurs on sensor so system
will consider as Traffic collision. Hence system will send
emergency message with co-ordinates of collision area to
nearest hospital, police, as per database, by using it’s the
GSM-GPS system. Android application and web based data
portal will create to trace collision area

5. CONCLUSION
In this work, proposed system will help to reduce Traffic
accident. system will monitor driver`s facial cues and it will
alert driver on fatigue condition. Also this system will give
driver voice to text facilities for medical emergencies.
Traffic collision information system will detect the collision
and instantly call to help nearest hospital, police station,
relatives as per data base.
