What is a Driver Behavior Monitoring System?


The Driver Monitoring System (DMS) is an active safety system based on artificial intelligence and visual perception technology.

Equipped with an intelligent camera installed inside the cockpit, it real-time monitors and analyzes the driver’s facial expressions, eye states, head poses and hand movements. It can accurately identify fatigue, distraction and dangerous driving behaviors, and issue timely warnings to enable effective intervention before accidents occur. As a digital core tool, it significantly improves the safety management level of commercial fleets.

 

Driver Behavior Monitoring System


Key Functions of the Driver Behavior Monitoring System

The system integrates the following key functions to build a multi-layered defense for safe driving:

(1) Fatigue and Distraction Warning

① Fatigue Monitoring: Accurately assess the driver’s fatigue level by analyzing physiological features such as eye closure duration, blinking frequency and yawning.

② Distraction Monitoring: Detect behaviors like gaze deviation from the road, mobile phone usage and turning to converse, ensuring the driver maintains focused attention.

 

(2) Hazardous Behavior Recognition

① Automatically identify and record irregular operations including smoking, eating/drinking, single-hand steering and failure to wear seatbelts.

 

(3) Active Real-time Intervention

① Upon detecting high-risk behaviors, the system immediately sends instant alerts and corrective prompts via voice, sound and light signals.

 

(4) Intelligent Identity and Data Management

① Identity Verification: Certain models support facial recognition, enabling driver identity authentication and standardized driving compliance management.

② Data Reporting: Record driving behaviors and incident videos throughout the journey, and generate analytical reports to provide data support for safety training, performance management and accident traceability.

 

Applicable Fleet Types

The system is widely used in various commercial operation scenarios that require enhanced safety management:

① Long-haul logistics and freight fleets: Prevent fatigue driving and ensure the safety of long-distance trunk transportation.

② Public transportation and passenger transport groups: Safeguard the public safety of passengers on buses, coaches and school buses.

③ Hazardous materials transportation companies: Minimize human errors and control high-risk transportation hazards.

④ Municipal, sanitation and engineering fleets: Reduce operational accidents under complex urban road conditions.

⑤ Car rental and ride-sharing platforms: Standardize the driving behaviors of non-fixed drivers and protect assets.
