System and method for driver authentication and violation detection
The present disclosure relates to surveillance system and method for detecting violation by driver in vehicle. The surveillance system comprises capturing unit for capturing license information of driver of the vehicle, upon start of the vehicle. Further, the surveillance system comprises processor configured to receive the license information of the driver from the capturing unit. Further, the processor is configured to receive continuous data related to the vehicle from one or more sensors in the vehicle. Furthermore, the processor is configured to detect occurrence of violation, of one or more pre-defined driving guidelines, based on monitoring the data related to the vehicle and the license information. Information related to the violation and the license information of the driver is transmitted to one or more external entities for taking actions against driver of the vehicle.
1. A method of detecting violation by a driver in a vehicle, the method comprising:
comparing, by a capturing unit of a surveillance system, biometric identification information of the driver with a plurality of profiles associated with the vehicle, wherein each of the plurality of profiles includes biometric identification information associated with a corresponding driver;
authenticating, by the capturing unit, the driver of the vehicle based on the comparison;
obtaining, by the capturing unit, license information of the driver of the vehicle from a profile, of the plurality of profiles, associated with the driver, wherein the obtaining of the information is based on a successful authentication of the driver of the vehicle, and wherein the license information is obtained upon start of the vehicle;
receiving, by a processor of the surveillance system, the license information of the driver from the capturing unit;
receiving, by the processor, continuous data related to the vehicle from one or more sensors in the vehicle, when ignition switch of the vehicle is in an ON state, wherein the one or more sensors comprise a magnetically operated sensor to monitor a seat belt status and a fuel consumption sensor to monitor a fuel consumption of the vehicle;
detecting, by the processor, an occurrence of a violation performed by the driver, of one or more pre-defined driving guidelines, based on monitoring of the continuous data related to the vehicle and the license information;
transmitting a request to an Electronic Control Unit (ECU) of the vehicle, to control the speed of the vehicle based on the one or more pre-defined driving guidelines, based on the detection of the occurrence of the violation; and
transmitting information related to the violation and the license information of the driver to one or more external entities for taking actions against the driver of the vehicle.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the license information comprises at least one of:
a license number, identification details of the driver, a date of issue of a license, validity of the license, or identification details of the vehicle.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the biometric identification information of the driver comprises one of:
facial information, voice information, or fingerprint information.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the data related to the vehicle comprises at least one of:
a speed of the vehicle, a seat belt status of the driver, driving behaviour, and a location of the vehicle.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the detection of occurrence of the violation comprises:
obtaining driver data from the license information of the driver;
comparing the driver data and the data related the vehicle with the one or more pre-defined driving guidelines; and
detecting the occurrence of the violation of the one or more pre-defined driving guidelines based on the comparison.
6. A non-transitory computer readable medium including instructions stored thereon that when processed by a processor causes a surveillance system to perform steps comprising:
comparing biometric identification information of a driver with a plurality of profiles associated with a vehicle, wherein each of the plurality of profiles includes biometric identification information associated with a corresponding driver;
authenticating the driver of the vehicle based on the comparison;
obtaining license information of a the driver of the vehicle from a profile, of the plurality of profiles, associated with the driver, wherein the obtaining of the information is based on a successful authentication of the driver of the vehicle, wherein the license information is obtained upon start of the vehicle;
receive continuous data related to the vehicle from one or more sensors in the vehicle, when ignition switch of the vehicle is in an ON state, wherein the one or more sensors comprise a magnetically operated sensor to monitor a seat belt status and a fuel consumption sensor to monitor a fuel consumption of the vehicle;
detect an occurrence of a violation performed by the driver, of one or more pre-defined driving guidelines, based on monitoring of the continuous data related to the vehicle and the license information; and
transmit information related to the violation and the license information of the driver to one or more external entities for taking actions against the driver of the vehicle.
7. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 6 , wherein the license information comprises at least one of:
a license number, identification details of the driver, a date of issue of the license, validity of the license, or identification details of the vehicle.
8. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 6 , wherein the data related to the vehicle comprises at least one of:
a speed of the vehicle, a seat belt status of the driver, driving behaviour, and a location of the vehicle.
9. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 6 , wherein the processor detects the occurrence of the violation by:
obtaining driver data from the license information of the driver;
comparing the driver data and the data related to the vehicle with the one or more pre-defined driving guidelines; and
detecting the occurrence of the violation of the one or more pre-defined driving guidelines based on the comparison.
10. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 6 , wherein the processor is further configured to transmit a request to an Electronic Control Unit (ECU) of the vehicle, to control the vehicle based on the one or more pre-defined driving guidelines, upon detecting the occurrence of the violation.
