How EyeJolt reads the fade.

EyeJolt turns the camera into a live sensor, then evaluates visible face signals over time. That creates useful warnings without becoming a clinical measurement.

Eye closure

The app estimates eye openness and looks for sustained patterns rather than treating every blink as drowsiness.

Head position

Some platform adapters provide head-position signals that can add context to visible eye closure.

State and escalation

Rolling signals drive alert states, sensitivity, and escalating randomized alarms.

Privacy

Camera frames remain local and are not recorded, stored, or uploaded.
