Abstract : All over the world Drowsiness has been the significant cause of horrible accidents which is causing deaths and fatalities injuries. Day by Day fatal injuries numbers are increasing globally. From the past many years, researchers have concluded drivers with a lack of sleep and more tiredness which causes drowsiness of the driver. this paper shows a new experimental model is designed for detecting drowsiness of driver is presented to reduce accidents caused by this problem which increases transport safety. In this work, two ways are used to detect the drowsiness of a person effectively. First Driver face is captured and eye retina detection and facial feature extraction are done and blinking values are calculated then threshold values are set. Secondly, the Aurdino module is used which is integrated with elastomeric sensors for real-time calculation of driver hand pressure on the car steering wheel and the threshold value is set. The result from both methods is taken as input for taking the final decision and alerting the driver.
