Abstract

In this paper, we propose and develop a framework for automatic switching of manual driving and autonomous driving based on driver drowsiness detection. We first present the scale-down intelligent transportation system (ITS) testbed. This testbed has four main parts: an arena; an indoor localization system; automated radio controlled (RC) cars; and roadside monitoring facilities. Second, we present the drowsiness detection algorithm which integrates facial expression and racing wheel motion to recognize driver drowsiness. Third, a manual and autonomous driving switching mechanism is developed, which is triggered by the detection of drowsiness. Finally, experiments were performed on the ITS testbed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed framework.
