ABSTRACT
Fatigue is a major cause of accidents in transportation and there is therefore a growing demand for fatigue detection technologies to improve safety. This chapter examines the many challenges associated with the development, adoption, and use of these technologies in our driving habits. It also discusses the different approaches and methods that exist for estimating the state of fatigue of an individual, each with its own advantages and disadvantages, highlighting those that are most likely to be applicable in an operational monitoring context. Finally, as the validation of this type of technology is rather complex, a methodology is presented to assess the performance and the reliability of fatigue detection technologies.
