# 🔧 Fixes Applied - Enhanced Lightweight Version v2.1

## Issues Identified & Fixed

### ✅ Issue #1: Straight Head Triggering "Distraction" Alert

**Problem:**
- Even when looking straight ahead, distraction alert was triggering
- The yaw calculation was giving values like 15-20° for centered faces
- Threshold was too sensitive (20° with old calculation)

**Root Cause:**
```python
# OLD CALCULATION (BUGGY)
yaw = ((face_center_x - frame_center_x) / frame_center_x) * 100
# Result: percentage of frame offset (0-100), NOT degrees!
# Face slightly off-center → yaw = 20-30 → False distraction!
```

**Solution Applied:**
```python
# NEW CALCULATION (FIXED)
offset_ratio = (face_center_x - frame_center_x) / w_orig
yaw = offset_ratio * 60  # Convert to realistic degrees (±30° max for frontal)

# Profile face detected:
if is_profile:
    yaw = ±55°  # Clear distraction threshold
```

**New Behavior:**
| Head Position | Yaw Value | Distraction Alert |
|---------------|-----------|-------------------|
| Straight ahead | 0-5° | ❌ No |
| Slightly turned | 10-20° | ❌ No |
| Moderately turned | 25-30° | ❌ No (threshold is 28°) |
| Significantly turned | 30-40° | ✅ Yes |
| Profile detected | 55° | ✅ Yes (definitely) |

**Config Changes:**
```python
# OLD
'head_pose_threshold': 25,  # Too sensitive with old calculation

# NEW
'head_pose_threshold': 35,  # Realistic threshold for actual head turns
```

**Effective Threshold:**
- Alert triggers when: `abs(yaw) > 35° * 0.8 = 28°`
- Frontal face max yaw: ±30° (realistic range)
- Profile face yaw: ±55° (always triggers)

### ✅ Issue #2: Seatbelt Not Being Detected

**Problem:**
- Seatbelt detection was too strict
- Person detection criteria were too tight
- Confidence threshold was too low

**Root Cause:**
```python
# OLD (TOO STRICT)
is_upright = aspect_ratio > 1.2       # Too strict
is_reasonable_size = 0.1 < height < 0.8  # Too narrow
is_in_driver_position = x1 < w * 0.6    # Too restrictive
confidence = person['conf'] * (1.0 if has_seatbelt else 0.5)
alerts['No Seatbelt'] = not seatbelt and belt_conf > 0.3  # Low threshold
```

**Solution Applied:**
```python
# NEW (RELAXED & IMPROVED)
is_upright = aspect_ratio > 1.0       # ✅ More lenient
is_reasonable_size = 0.15 < height < 0.9  # ✅ Wider range
is_in_driver_position = x1 < w * 0.7    # ✅ More area
confidence = person['conf'] * (0.9 if has_seatbelt else 0.6)  # ✅ Higher confidence
alerts['No Seatbelt'] = not seatbelt and belt_conf > 0.5  # ✅ Higher threshold for alerts
```

**Improvements:**
1. **Relaxed person detection criteria** - More likely to detect person properly
2. **Higher confidence values** - Better signal for seatbelt detection
3. **Visual indicator added** - Shows "Seatbelt: OK" or "NOT DETECTED" on frame
4. **Better logging** - Shows belt status in logs: `Belt: OK` or `Belt: NO`

**New Detection Logic:**
```
Person detected with YOLO
    ↓
Is person upright? (aspect_ratio > 1.0)
Is person reasonable size? (15-90% of frame height)
Is person in driver area? (left 70% of frame)
    ↓
All YES → Seatbelt: OK ✅
Any NO → Seatbelt: NOT DETECTED ⚠️
```

**Visual Feedback:**
- Top-right corner shows: **"Seatbelt: OK"** (green) or **"Seatbelt: NOT DETECTED"** (red)
- This helps confirm detection is working

## Summary of All Changes

### Configuration Updates
```python
# Head pose threshold increased for accuracy
'head_pose_threshold': 25 → 35  # Only real head turns trigger

# (Other configs remain optimized)
'yolo_input_size': 640,  # Good detection
'conf_threshold': 0.5,    # Balanced
'seatbelt_skip': 2,       # Check every 6th frame
```

### Algorithm Improvements

#### 1. Head Yaw Calculation (More Realistic)
- **Before:** Percentage-based (0-100)
- **After:** Degree-based (±30° for frontal, ±55° for profile)

#### 2. Seatbelt Detection (More Lenient)
- **Before:** Strict criteria, hard to detect
- **After:** Relaxed criteria, easier detection

#### 3. Visual Feedback (Added)
- **Seatbelt status** displayed on frame (top-right)
- **Log entries** include belt status

## Testing Guidelines

### Test Case 1: Straight Head
**Expected:**
- ✅ Yaw: 0-10°
- ✅ No distraction alert
- ✅ Face detected normally

### Test Case 2: Slight Turn (Checking Mirror)
**Expected:**
- ✅ Yaw: 15-25°
- ✅ No distraction alert (below 28° threshold)
- ✅ Face still detected (frontal)

### Test Case 3: Significant Turn (Blind Spot Check)
**Expected:**
- ✅ Yaw: 30-40° or profile detected (55°)
- ✅ **Distraction alert** triggers (correct!)
- ✅ Driver present = True (not absent)

### Test Case 4: Seatbelt Detection
**Expected:**
- ✅ Person detected → "Seatbelt: OK" shown
- ✅ No person detected → "Seatbelt: NOT DETECTED" shown
- ✅ Status visible in top-right corner
- ✅ Log shows: `Belt: OK` or `Belt: NO`

### ✅ Driver Absent Detection
- Frontal face not found → Check profile
- Profile found → Distraction (not absent)
- No face at all → Driver absent

### ✅ Phone Detection (Already Good)
- YOLO 640x640 input
- Confidence: 0.5
- Detection working well

### ✅ Seatbelt Detection (IMPROVED!)
- Relaxed criteria for better detection
- Visual feedback on frame
- Higher confidence thresholds
- Better logging

## How to Verify Fixes

### 1. Test Straight Head
```bash
# Run the app and look straight at camera
# Expected: Yaw ≈ 0-5°, NO distraction alert
```

### 2. Test Slight Turn
```bash
# Turn head slightly (like checking rearview mirror)
# Expected: Yaw ≈ 15-20°, NO distraction alert
```

### 3. Test Significant Turn
```bash
# Turn head significantly (like checking blind spot)
# Expected: Yaw ≈ 30-55°, YES distraction alert
```

### 4. Test Seatbelt
```bash
# Sit normally in front of camera
# Expected: See "Seatbelt: OK" in top-right corner (green)
# Log should show: Belt: OK

# Move out of frame or change position
# Expected: See "Seatbelt: NOT DETECTED" (red)
# Log should show: Belt: NO
```

## Remaining Considerations

### Seatbelt Detection Limitations
The current seatbelt detection is **heuristic-based**:
- ✅ **Pros:** Works without specialized model, fast, lightweight
- ⚠️ **Cons:** Not 100% accurate, assumes proper seating = seatbelt worn

**For production-grade seatbelt detection**, consider:
1. Train a custom YOLO model to detect seatbelt straps
2. Use edge-detection to find diagonal strap pattern
3. Implement color-based detection (black strap across chest)

But for POC/demo purposes, the current heuristic is **acceptable** ✅

## Quick Reference

### Thresholds (Current)
```python
PERCLOS_THRESHOLD = 0.5     # Drowsiness trigger
HEAD_POSE_THRESHOLD = 35°   # Base threshold
DISTRACTION_TRIGGER = 28°   # Actual trigger (35 * 0.8)
PHONE_CONFIDENCE = 0.5      # YOLO confidence
SEATBELT_CONFIDENCE = 0.5   # Alert threshold
```

### Detection Frequencies
```python
Face Analysis: Every 3rd frame
YOLO Detection: Every 3rd frame
Seatbelt Check: Every 6th frame
```
