Abstract：Aimed at the needs of large data, high transmission speed and complex operation, an embedded real-time monitoring system of fatigue driving is developed based on DSP TMS320DM642. In order to reduce the crash accidents caused by fatigue and drowsiness, various fatigue detecting methods are investigated. Fuzzy neural network is used for detecting driver fatigue status, combined with multiple fatigue characteristic cues such as： PERCLOS, AECS, NodFreq and YawnFreq, and the accuracy rate is 88.7%. The results show that the algorithm has preferable effect on fatigue detecting. The developed system has great significance in reducing incident rate of accidents for driver fatigue.
