The computers integrated into vehicles could soon determine if a driver is intoxicated simply by analyzing their facial features, according to researchers. This technology, by continuously monitoring the driver for typical signs of inebriation, holds the potential to significantly reduce drunk driving incidents.
The project, detailed in a paper published on April 9th during an Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and Computer Vision Foundation (CVF) conference, empowers in-car computing systems to evaluate a driver’s intoxication level with 75% accuracy as soon as they enter the vehicle.
