Claim 0:
1. A system for assessing driving safety, comprising:
an image sensor disposed on a vehicle and configured to capture image data, the image data comprising a plurality of image frames depicting a face of an operator of the vehicle;
a non-transitory memory storing computer-executable instructions; and
a processor communicatively coupled to the image sensor and the non-transitory memory, the processor being configured to execute the computer-executable instructions, wherein executing the computer-executable instructions causes the processor to:
determine that an eye aspect ratio of the operator, as depicted in a first image frame of the plurality of image frames, is less than an eye aspect ratio threshold,
determine a number of consecutive image frames subsequent to the first image frame, in which the eye aspect ratio of the operator is less than the eye aspect ratio threshold, and
determine that an unsafe driving condition exists based at least in part on the number of consecutive image frames exceeding an image frame threshold.
