Q2. What is the effect of the automated vehicle on the driver?
By reducing the visual and attentional demands of the driver, such systems have the potential to engineer a more pleasurable environment for the motorist.
Q3. What is the effect of automation on driving?
there was a suggestion that high levels of automation contribute towards a safer driving environment, demonstrated by the significantly shorter period exposed to low time-to-collision when compared to manual driving.
Q4. What is the main focus of applied research?
The interaction between the human driver and the automated vehicle has beena focus of applied research for some time (e.g. Nilsson, 1995).
Q5. How many drivers were able to see, hear and feel the impact of their automated vehicle?
49 drivers participated using a high-fidelity driving simulator that allowed drivers to see, hear and, crucially, feel the impact of their automated vehicle handling.
Q6. What was the effect of automation on the speed of the vehicle?
Whilst mean speed did reduce under automation, this was a result of driversreluctance to intervene, limiting their propensity to move into faster moving lanes to facilitate overtaking and therefore becoming held up by traffic.
Q7. What was the effect of the automated vehicle?
The consequence of vehicle automation to free up attentional resources wasmost definitely exploited by drivers, who showed strong propensity to become involved in secondary activities, especially those related to in-vehicle entertainment, when under automated rather than manual control.
Q8. How much did the PRC decrease when driving manually?
PRC decreased significantly from 74.5% when driving manually to 54.0% when automated, associated here with a reduction in visual attention to the primary driving task and an increase to those associated with the entertaining secondary tasks; F(1,48)=64.9, p<.00001, さ2=.63.
Q9. What was the effect of the automated system on the drivers?
These instructions also encouraged considerable use of the system, which, along with participants inexperience of its functionality (apart from the 15-20 minute familiarisation period) may have also increased the likelihood for drivers to simply leave the system engaged, even though overtaking opportunities were plentiful.
Q10. What is the history of European automobile manufacturers co-operating on their development of such systems?
There is a recent history of European automobile manufacturers co-operating on their development of such systems, for example through the ADASE II (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems in Europe) project supported through the European Union s Fifth Framework Programme.
Q11. What is the first description of the driving task?
The first, Michon s (1985) hierarchical analysis of the driving task, describes driver behaviour at three distinct levels: the highest strategic level outlining the process of route choice, the middle tactical level concerning the planning of specific driving manoeuvres to best achieve the chosen route and the lowest control level depicting the closed-loop control of vehicle inputs required to action these manoeuvres.
Q12. What was the effect of the automated system on the participants?
participants were willing to compromise their requirements to continually monitor the automated system, exhibiting much confidence in its ability,1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 6416probably amplified by the lack of dangerous scenarios simulated and the wellbehaved nature of the automation.
Q13. What is the purpose of this study?
This study has attempted to provide an original and robust investigation into atopic area relevant to modern trends in vehicle design.
Q14. What is the main influence of the automated vehicle design on driver behaviour?
Evaluations of driver behaviour were limited by the major influence thatautomated vehicle design has on typical metrics such as speed or lane control.
