1080p infrared driver camera with a closed-eye and nodding alarm

The DSM Camera is a driver-facing fatigue camera for MDVR systems. It records 1920 × 1080 on a 1/2.9-inch CMOS sensor with infrared night vision, detects closed eyes and head nodding, and sounds a fatigue alarm. Its viewing angle adjusts from 120° to 170°, and it runs on 12–24 V.

Power & build

Input voltage12–24 V

The DSM Camera is a driver fatigue monitor. It faces the driver, watches for closed eyes and head nodding, and sounds an alarm when it detects either.

What it detects

  • Closed eyes. Eyes that stay closed trigger the fatigue alarm.
  • Head nodding. The head dropping forward triggers the alarm.

It does not detect distraction, phone use or smoking. For distraction, use the AHD005; phone calls and smoking are in the DMS function of the WD10 and WD11.

Installation

  • The viewing angle adjusts from 120° to 170°, so the camera can sit on the dashboard or the A-pillar and still frame the driver's face.
  • Infrared light keeps detection working in the dark.
  • Keep the lens clear of sun visors and steering-wheel spokes, so the face stays in view through the whole shift.
  • It runs on 12–24 V, for 12 V and 24 V vehicles.
  • The cable and connector differ by recorder, so state your MDVR model when you order.

Connected to an MDVR, each fatigue event is stored with its video, so a manager can see when in a shift the alarms occur. To add road-facing alerts, pair it with the ADAS Camera on a recorder such as the WD12.

DSM-CAM questions

What does the DSM Camera detect?

Closed eyes and head nodding. It sounds a fatigue alarm in the cab when it detects either. It does not detect distraction, phone use or smoking.

What is the difference between the DSM Camera and the AHD005?

Both are driver-facing 1080p infrared cameras. The AHD005 adds yawning and distraction detection and checks whether a hat or helmet is worn.
