Driver Sleep Alarm Science Project Model – DIY Drowsiness Detection Safety Device for Students DIY KIT (Assembled), 100% Tested

Please Note we are only providing kit we marked as ACTUAL PRODUCT, project shown customer needs to do at there own we just provide reference.

Abstract:
The Driver Sleep Alarm circuit is designed to enhance road safety by detecting drowsiness in drivers. It uses an IR sensor mounted on spectacles to monitor eye movements and head tilts. When signs of drowsiness are detected, the LM393 comparator triggers a buzzer, alerting the driver. The circuit operates on a 5V supply, making it more portable and ideal for DIY projects with readily available components.

Application of the Circuit:
This circuit provides an effective solution to prevent accidents caused by driver fatigue. It detects signs of drowsiness, such as eye closure or head tilts, and alerts the driver with a buzzer. Ideal for use in personal vehicles, long-distance drivers, and educational demonstrations, this system helps ensure timely safety interventions on the road.

Why This Particular Circuit:
The IR sensor used for eye movement detection is accurate and reliable, while the LM393 comparator processes the sensor signals to activate the buzzer. Operating on a 5V DC supply, this circuit is efficient, easy to assemble, and compatible with common USB power sources, making it convenient for DIY enthusiasts and road safety applications.

Explained Working of the Circuit:
The Driver Sleep Alarm circuit detects drowsiness by monitoring eye movements and head tilts with the IR sensor mounted on spectacles. If the driver’s eyes are closed for too long or their head tilts beyond a specific threshold, the LM393 comparator processes this signal and activates a buzzer to alert the driver. When normal eye movements are detected, the circuit remains inactive, conserving energy.

How to Build:

1. Carefully follow the manual, circuit diagram, and PCB layout.
2. Solder the components onto the PCB, ensuring the proper positioning of each component.
3. Use IC sockets for easy troubleshooting and replacement of the LM393 IC.
4. Begin soldering from one corner and proceed in sequence.
5. Ensure careful handling of components like diodes and capacitors during the soldering process.

Testing the Kit:
After assembling the circuit, connect the 5V DC power supply (such as a USB adapter or battery). Attach the IR sensor to the spectacles and wear them. Simulate drowsiness by closing your eyes or tilting your head. The buzzer should sound, indicating the system is working. Adjust the R2 variable resistor to fine-tune the sensitivity.

ICs Used:

• LM393: An 8-pin dual comparator IC used to process the signal from the IR sensor and activate the buzzer.

Part List:
