Abstract

Driving is a very complex task which, at its core, involves the interaction between the driver and his/her environment. It is therefore extremely important to develop driver assistance systems that are centered around the driver from the ground up. In this paper, we explore one aspect of such a system. Specifically, we focus on monitoring the driver's face and facial regions. We demonstrate a real-world system for tracking face and facial regions and provide insight as to it importance and placement in human-centered driver assistance systems. Result demonstrating its impact on driver assistance systems as well as its performance in real-world driving scenarios are shown.
