Download or read book The Multisensory Driver written by Dr Cristy Ho and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2012-10-01 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Driver inattention has been identified as one of the leading causes for car accidents. The problem of distraction while driving is likely to worsen, partly due to increasingly complex in-car technologies. However, intelligent transport systems are being developed to assist drivers and to ensure a safe road environment. One approach to the design of ergonomic automobile systems is to integrate our understanding of the human information processing systems into the design process. This book aims to further the design of ergonomic multisensory interfaces using research from the fast-growing field of cognitive neuroscience. It focuses on two aspects of driver information-processing in particular: multisensory interactions and the spatial distribution of attention in driving. The Multisensory Driver provides interface design guidelines together with a detailed review of current cognitive neuroscience and behavioural research in multisensory human perception, which will help the development of ergonomic interfaces. The discussion on spatial attention is particularly relevant for car interface designers, but it will also appeal to cognitive psychologists interested in spatial attention and the applications of these theoretical research findings. Giving a detailed description of a cohesive series of psychophysical experiments on multisensory warning signals, conducted in both laboratory and simulator settings, this book provides an approach for those in the engineering discipline who wish to test their systems with human observers.

Download or read book Backseat Driver written by Norma Faris Hubele and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2022-08-24 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Buying the safest car for your family shouldn’t be up for debate. Yet for decades, car safety advocates, manufacturers, and lawmakers in the United States have clashed over whether to make automobiles safer. All sides armed themselves with data in the hopes of winning the great car safety debates. In this way, crash statistics and the analysts who studied them made history. But data were always in the backseat, merely supporting different points of view. That is, until now. With car safety, it’s the value we place on every human life that counts. Automobile safety expert Dr. Norma Faris Hubele delivers a lively discussion of the role data play in protecting you and your family on the road. You’ll gain a greater appreciation for how: A World War I pilot’s near-death experience birthed the U.S. car safety movement Data from real car crashes helped create the first vehicle safety standards A shift toward fuel-efficient cars affected fatality risk in the 1970s–1980s versus now Vehicle size has changed, and the problems that creates for you and others sharing the road Car safety rating systems, even when limited, empower consumers and motivate manufacturers Federal regulators decide whether to issue a safety recall on your vehicle Data’s role is evolving with the advent of driver-assist and self-driving technologies Further information can be found on the book's website: www.TheAutoProfessor.com/book [US only].

Book The National Accident Sampling System

Download or read book The National Accident Sampling System written by National Center for Statistics and Analysis (U.S.) and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Transportation Safety Board reviewed the NASS program and prepared a report of findings titled, "Safety Effectiveness Evaluation of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's National Accident Sampling System," NTSB Report No. NTSB-SEE-78-1, dated March 2, 1978. In this document the NTSB reported: 1. Nationally representative highway accident data are needed. 2. If attained, the publicly stated objectives of NASS will provide valuable information to the nation's highway safety program. 3. The NASS plan for the near future emphasizes motor vehicle crashworthiness and primarily supports NHTSA's mission. 4. The NASS program alone will provide limited capability for evaluating many countermeasures. 5. The implementation of NASS has proceeded beyond the level of planning. 6. Through improved planning and broader perspective NASS could become an important part of the national highway safety program.

Book Adaptive Cooperation between Driver and Assistant System

Download or read book Adaptive Cooperation between Driver and Assistant System written by Frédéric Holzmann and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-12-03 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the next challenges in vehicular technology field is to improve drastically the road safety. Current developments are focusing on both vehicle platform and diverse assistance systems. This book presents a new engineering approach based on lean vehicle architecture ready for the drive-by-wire technology. Based on a cognitive functionality split, execution and command levels are detailed. The execution level centralized over the stability control performs the motion vector coming from the command level. At this level the driver generates a motion vector which is continuously monitored by a virtual co-pilot. The integration of assistance systems in a safety relevant multi-agent system is presented here to provide first an adequate feedback to the driver to let him recover a dangerous situation. Robust strategies are also presented for the intervention phase once the command vehicle has to be optimized to stay within the safety envelope.
