An attention detection method based on a driver's reflex actions is provided to monitor a driver's instantaneous reflex actions and thereby determine the driver's degree of attention. Basically, the attention detection apparatus provides a stimulus to the driver and then determines how the driver responds to the stimulus. The attention detection apparatus includes an image capturing unit for capturing an image of the driver, a processing unit for performing digital image processing on the image, a safety testing unit for issuing a safety test instruction, and a safety determination unit for performing value comparison and determination according to the characteristics of the image. If the image fails to meet the requirement of the safety test instruction, an alarm signal will be sent out to alert the driver.
