    Abstract :

    A High Performance Low Power (HPLP) Fatigue Detection system is developed using Non-Intrusive vision based approach. The system uses Universal Serial Bus (USB) Logitech Pro 9000camera which is mounted inside vehicle to monitor driver’s face continuously. In Vision based HPLP Fatigue Detection system Hardware plays a very important role in terms of cost, size, powerconsumption and speed. In this research, Texas Instrument (TI) based DM3730 Processor -1GHz ARM Cortex-A8 core board is used which has four USB ports, RS-232 port, Camera port and Expansion port to interface 7” LCD capacitive Touch screen. The board uses up to 2W of power and can be powered using USB connector or 5V of power supply. Due to low power consumption, no separate Heat Sinks are required. ARM Cortex-A8 runs on Linux, Minix, Android, WinCE, Symbian operating system. In this work, Linux version Ubuntu 11.10 is ported on to microSD card of 8GB. The camera is connected to one of the USB port of the board which captures frames @30fps.
