EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF ONBOARD DRIVER CONDITION MONITORING SYSTEM FOR PASSENGER VEHICLES

Today modern vehicles require active safety devices to enhance the human safety due to increased frequency of road accidents. The causes of accidents 20 percentage of fatality are due to heart problems during driving. The current proposed system of study is to slowdown the vehicle when health issue signal offered by pulse sensor and temperature sensor. The proposed system performances were analyzed for different scenario to improve the system technology. The concept of this study is cost effective and can be used in commercial vehicles. The signal from pulse sensor is carried out to the processing unit and brake control system senses the speed and road conditions. The brake actuated by actuator which is connected to brake pedal of the electronic braking system and tends to stop down the vehicle and prevents the collision in critical situations. The output pulse is analyzed on different health conditions of the adults by utilizing different parameters temperature, heart range and 02 sensors. The output signal offers to activate the brake pedal on different scenario such as heart pulse speed, pedal force, brake disc rpm, thinking distance and reaction distance. The proposed system tends to stop down the vehicle with parking sensors, tail lamp and alarm to warning.
