The problem Drowsiness Detection with Alert Sender solves

This is a Python-based project that uses OpenCV and dlib libraries to detect the drowsiness of a driver in real-time. It can detect if the driver's eyes are closed for a certain amount of time, which could indicate that the driver is drowsy and may fall asleep while driving. Drowsy driving is a major cause of road accidents, especially for long-distance drivers. To address this issue, we have developed a device that can detect a driver's sleepy eyes and send an alert to the driver while also slowing down the vehicle. The device is a combination of hardware and software components, which work together to detect the driver's drowsiness and take appropriate actions to prevent accidents.

Challenges I ran into

Had faced errors while training the data set, also faced error with the syntax as the syntax of Tensorflow was updated with the 2.5+ version. So, I read the full documentation of new tensorflow version, and finally was able to rectify the problem.
