How YOLO tasks can help you in your day-to-day

Ultralytics Platform natively supports all 5 annotation tasks needed to build production-ready vision AI.

Identify handheld devices (phones), cigarettes, or food items that distract the driver from the road.
Precisely mask the driver's head and torso to isolate body movements from the vehicle's interior background.
Track head tilt, eye-gaze direction, and hand positioning on the steering wheel to detect if a driver is looking away from the road.
Accurately frame objects within the cramped, angled geometry of a vehicle cabin, such as a phone held at a side angle.
Categorize the driver's state into classes such as "Attentive," "Drowsy," "Distracted," or "Seatbelt Unfastened."

Frequently asked questions

  • Yes, advanced YOLO models trained on infrared imagery can "see through" most sunglasses to track eye movement and eyelid position even in bright sunlight or total darkness.

  • The system is designed for edge processing, meaning video can be analyzed locally to trigger alerts without ever uploading or storing sensitive footage of the driver.

  • Absolutely. The model can be trained to recognize the specific texture and path of a fastened seatbelt across the driver's shoulder.
