Research on the Method of Driver’s Eye Location Based on MATLAB

Accurate location of driver eyes has a positive meaning for eye state detection. This paper presents a new algorithm which is fusion of a mixed color model, integral projection and Prewitt algorithm. First, establishes a mixed color model to locate faces in color space, and finds face area through integral projection and formwork design based on MATLAB. Then eye area is detected through integral projection and a curve optimal. In the end, localizes eyes accurately using Prewitt algorithm and morphologic processing. The effectiveness of the algorithm is verified by the simulation analysis.
