Özet:

 This study introduces a warning system designed for small training aircraft pilots flying below 10000 feet. The system detects the pilots sleepinessdrowsinesssleep states. If the system detects such an undesirable situation, it immediately transfers the image of that moment to the predetermined cloud service and activates the warning system consisting of audio and vibration equipment so that the pilot can escape from the current situation and recover. The warning system continues to operate until the pilot exits in that situation. The basic hardware used to implement the system is a Jetson developer kit, a Jetson Wi-Fi module, a vibration motor, a motor control circuit, and a camera. Tests of the designed system were carried out under two main headings: eye condition and headneck position. In the tests performed according to eye condition, situations in which the eyes are constantly open sleepiness and situations in which the eyes are closed drowsiness are considered. In the tests performed with and without glasses, depending on the headneck position, the cases of head tilting forward, backward, right, and left sleep situation were examined. It has been observed that the designed system successfully detects the relevant situations in all tests, both warning the pilot and sending the images of that moment to the cloud service.

 Bu çalışmada 10000 feet altında uçan küçük eğitim uçağı pilotları için tasarlanmış bir uyarı sistemi tanıtılmaktadır. Sistem pilotların dalgınlıkuyuklamauyku durumlarını tespit etmektedir. Sistem böyle bir istenmeyen durum tespit ederse o ana ait görüntüyü hemen önceden belirlenmiş bulut servisine aktarır ve pilotun mevcut durumdan kurtulup kendine gelebilmesi için ses ve titreşim ekipmanlarından oluşan uyarı sistemini devreye sokmaktadır. Pilot o durumdan çıkana kadar uyarı sistemi çalışmaya devam eder. Sistemi hayata geçirmek için kullanılan temel donanımlar Jetson geliştirici kiti, Jetson Wi-Fi modülü, titreşim motoru, motor kontrol devresi ve kameradır. Tasarlanan sistemin testleri göz durumu ve başboyun pozisyonu olmak üzere iki ana başlık altında gerçekleştirilmiştir. Göz durumuna göre yapılan testlerde gözlerin sürekli açık olduğu durumlar dalgınlık hali ve gözlerin kapalı olduğu durumlar uyuklama hali dikkate alınmıştır. Gözlüklü ve gözlüksüz olarak yapılan testlerde başboyun pozisyonuna bağlı olarak başın öne, arkaya, sağa ve sola eğilmesi uyku durumu durumları incelenmiştir. Tasarlanan sistemin tüm testlerde ilgili durumları başarılı bir şekilde tespit ederek hem pilotu uyardığı hem de o ana ait görüntüleri bulut servisine gönderdiği gözlemlenmiştir.
