Abstract

A drowsiness detecting device includes a feature extractor, a detecting rule storage unit, a normalizer, and a drowsiness detector. The feature extractor extracts a feature value on heartbeats of a user based on intervals between the heartbeats. The detecting rule storage unit retains a detecting rule for drowsiness detecting. The normalizer updates a normalization coefficient. The drowsiness detector detects drowsiness of the user based on the feature value, the detecting rule, and the normalization coefficient. The normalizer updates the normalization coefficient based on the feature value when the drowsiness detector does not detect the drowsiness of the user.
