Abstract

This paper presents the design and implementation of an intelligent eye blink monitoring system aimed at detecting drowsiness in drivers with disabilities. The system integrates an infrared sensor connected to an Arduino Pro Mini microcontroller to detect blink frequency. When abnormal blink patterns associated with fatigue are detected, an audible alert is triggered, enhancing road safety.
