Book Design and Assessment of External Displays on Autonomous Vehicles for Pedestrian Safety

Download or read book Design and Assessment of External Displays on Autonomous Vehicles for Pedestrian Safety written by Zehao Qin and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most vulnerable group in road agents is pedestrians. In the Netherlands, from 2005 to 2009, the average lethality rate for vulnerable road users was 14 per 100 serious road injuries. Prior to autonomous vehicles (AV), conventional vehicles had a human driver that could communicate with pedestrians through signals such as eye gaze, head movements, and hand and arm gestures. With the introduction of AVs, pedestrians can no longer rely on such communication signals. In the future, when all of the control and responsibilities of the human driver gradually transfer to the autonomous driving program, the vehicle's intent communication to pedestrians must evolve as well. The aim of this proposed research was to investigate the efficacy of different external human-machine-interface in communicating autonomous vehicle intent to pedestrians in crossing situations where negotiation between the AV and the pedestrian is required (i.e. jaywalking). With SAE level 4 high automation enabled vehicles, what impact do external human-machine interfaces have on pedestrians' crossing behaviour? what impact do external human-machine interfaces have on pedestrians' general perception of AVs? Three novel design concepts were created to fill the gap of the lack of visual experimentation with displaying the key mental model factors - external speedometer display of the vehicle, speed change indicator (i.e. decelerating/ accelerating), and gap estimation count down timer. The experiment was a within-subject design with 29 levels. The stimulus was structured into a 14 (design cases) x 2 (coloured vs. non-coloured) factorial design. A combination of iconography, text, anthropomorphic features and colour were compared and measured in perceived safety, urgency, usefulness, understandability, emotion comfort, as well as the influence on crossing decisions. A 100-person online study was conducted to understand the impact of external visual displays with high automation (SAE level 4) vehicles on pedestrians' crossing behaviours. The novel concepts open a new discussion for the perception of warning designs where the new visual concepts (i.e. explicitly displaying and varying the symbolism of speed) had strong performance across all measures.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on automotive user interfaces for in-vehicle usage, looking at car electronics, its software of hidden technologies (e.g., ASP, ESP), comfort functions (e.g., navigation, communication, entertainment) and driver assistance (e.g., distance checking). The increased complexity of automotive user interfaces, driven by the need for using consumer electronic devices in cars as well as autonomous driving, has sparked a plethora of new research within this field of study. Covering a broad spectrum of detailed topics, the authors of this edited volume offer an outstanding overview of the current state of the art; providing deep insights into usability and user experience, interaction techniques and technologies as well as methods, tools and its applications, exploring the increasing importance of Human-Computer-Interaction (HCI) within the automotive industry Automotive User Interfaces is intended as an authoritative and valuable resource for professional practitioners and researchers alike, as well as computer science and engineering students who are interested in automotive interfaces.

Book Interaction between Automated Vehicles and other Road Users

Download or read book Interaction between Automated Vehicles and other Road Users written by Philipp Wintersberger and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2024-09-10 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An increasing number of automated vehicles will pervade our traffic systems in the future. The absence of a human driver requires these vehicles to communicate to, and interact with other traffic participants, such as vulnerable road users (pedestrians, cyclists, and emerging mobility forms like eBikes or scooters), but potentially also drivers of manual vehicles. In this regard, various studies and concepts demonstrating so-called “external Human-Machine Interfaces” (eHMIs) have been presented in the past couple of years. Many of these works have investigated comparably simple scenarios, such as a single pedestrian aiming to cross the street when an automated vehicle is approaching. Although we still welcome such contributions, research in this area will have to take more complex situations into account. This drives the need for research addressing other situations involving groups of vulnerable road users and traffic participants, different scenarios including roundabouts or urban shared spaces, but also exploring the potential of communication and interaction beyond such classical situations to improve cooperation in traffic.

Book Autonomous Driving

Download or read book Autonomous Driving written by Markus Maurer and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-05-21 with total page 698 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book takes a look at fully automated, autonomous vehicles and discusses many open questions: How can autonomous vehicles be integrated into the current transportation system with diverse users and human drivers? Where do automated vehicles fall under current legal frameworks? What risks are associated with automation and how will society respond to these risks? How will the marketplace react to automated vehicles and what changes may be necessary for companies? Experts from Germany and the United States define key societal, engineering, and mobility issues related to the automation of vehicles. They discuss the decisions programmers of automated vehicles must make to enable vehicles to perceive their environment, interact with other road users, and choose actions that may have ethical consequences. The authors further identify expectations and concerns that will form the basis for individual and societal acceptance of autonomous driving. While the safety benefits of such vehicles are tremendous, the authors demonstrate that these benefits will only be achieved if vehicles have an appropriate safety concept at the heart of their design. Realizing the potential of automated vehicles to reorganize traffic and transform mobility of people and goods requires similar care in the design of vehicles and networks. By covering all of these topics, the book aims to provide a current, comprehensive, and scientifically sound treatment of the emerging field of “autonomous driving".

Book Warning Design

Download or read book Warning Design written by John Edworthy and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1996-03-12 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why don't we always obey warnings? In discussing a wide range of issues in behavioural research of warnings, this book takes the view that a warning is but one piece of information which we take into account in deciding what - or what not - to do. This view leads the authors to the positions that warnings should be matched in their urgency to the urgency of the situation they warn about. Auditory, visual, written and symbolic warnings are discussed in detail.
