TL;DR: In this article, the effects of in-vehicle information systems (IVIS) usage on eye blinks in a simulated lane change test (LCT), a simple driving task specifically designed by the International Organization for Standardization.
Abstract: The use of standardized methods in driver distraction research is essential for comparing results across studies. This work examined the effects of in-vehicle information systems (IVIS) usage on eye blinks in a simulated Lane Change Test (LCT), a simple driving task specifically designed by the International Organization for Standardization. Fifteen participants performed the LCT in a driving simulator in both single- and dual-task conditions, the latter manipulated by introducing an IVIS task in the car cockpit. Results suggest that blink duration (BD), with respect to blink rate (BR), is a more sensitive and reliable indicator of driver visual workload. Besides considering mean BD values, a detailed analysis revealed that the distribution of BD follows a Gaussian-like curve in normal driving conditions: three duration classes (short, medium, long) were extracted from such distribution, and changes happening to each class were analyzed within the dual-task conditions. Short and long blinks reflect, respectively, the effects of visual workload and time on task: more short blinks occur with an IVIS interaction during driving, while more long blinks arise as time spent driving increases. These results may have practical implications for system design in automotive.

TL;DR: It was found that participants conformed more to the iCub's answers when their decisions were about functional issues than when they were about social issues, and trust in the robot's functional savvy does not seem to be a pre-requisite for trust in its social savvy.

TL;DR: Data from the first occultations by Pluto since 1988 are reported and it is found that, during the intervening 14 years, there seems to have been a doubling of the atmospheric pressure, a probable seasonal effect on Pluto.
Abstract: Pluto's tenuous nitrogen atmosphere was first detected by the imprint left on the light curve of a star that was occulted by the planet in 1985 (ref. 1), and studied more extensively during a second occultation event in 1988 (refs 2-6). These events are, however, quite rare and Pluto's atmosphere remains poorly understood, as in particular the planet has not yet been visited by a spacecraft. Here we report data from the first occultations by Pluto since 1988. We find that, during the intervening 14 years, there seems to have been a doubling of the atmospheric pressure, a probable seasonal effect on Pluto.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that saccadic peak velocity is sensitive to variations in mental workload during ecologically valid tasks, and decreases with increasing cognitive load, in agreement with subjective test scores and performance data.
