Accident Detection and Real-Time Driver Drowsiness System

Overview

This project is a collaborative effort aimed at enhancing road safety. We have developed an accident detection model using a video dataset and YOLOv8, and a real-time driver drowsiness detection system in Python.

Features

1. Accident Detection: Utilizes a video dataset and the YOLOv8 model to detect accidents. The model has been trained to recognize various types of accidents.
2. Driver Drowsiness Detection: Monitors the driver in real-time using a webcam. The system can detect signs of drowsiness or inattention, and can alert the driver or stop the vehicle to prevent accidents.
