Drowsy Driver Posture, Facial, and Eye Monitoring Methods
This chapter presents a real-time computer vision system for monitoring drowsy driver. It uses one remotely located charge coupled device (CCD) camera to acquire video of the driver’s face. From the video, var...

Fundamental Limitation of Feedback Control
Feedback systems are designed to meet many different objectives. Yet, not all design objectives are achievable as desired due to the fact that they are often mutually conflicting and that the system properties...
