Book Relationship Between Driver Characteristics  Nighttime Driving Risk Perception  and Visual Performance Under Adverse and Clear Weather Conditions and Different Vision Enhancement Systems

Download or read book Relationship Between Driver Characteristics Nighttime Driving Risk Perception and Visual Performance Under Adverse and Clear Weather Conditions and Different Vision Enhancement Systems written by and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vehicle crashes remain the leading cause of accidental death and injuries in the United States, claiming tens of thousands of lives and injuring millions of people each year. Many of these crashes occur during nighttime, where a variety of modifiers affect the risk of a crash, primarily through the reduction of object visibility. Furthermore, many of these modifiers also affect the nighttime mobility of older drivers, who avoid driving during the nighttime. Thus, a two-fold need exists for new technologies that enhance night visibility. Two separate studies were completed as part of this research. Study 1 served as a baseline by evaluating visual performance during nighttime driving under clear weather conditions. Visual performance was evaluated in terms of the detection and recognition distances obtained when different vision enhancement systems were used at the Smart Road testing facility. Study 2, also using detection and recognition distances, compared the visual performance of drivers during low visibility conditions (i.e., due to rain) to the risk perception of driving during nighttime under low visibility conditions. These comparisons were made as a function of various vision enhancement systems. The age of the driver and the characteristics of the object presented (e.g., contrast, motion) were variables of interest in both studies.

Book Human Factors of Visual and Cognitive Performance in Driving

Download or read book Human Factors of Visual and Cognitive Performance in Driving written by Candida Castro and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2008-11-21 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written clearly and concisely, using jargon-free language that is easily understood, this book compresses research from the past few decades into an accessible resource. It focuses on the concrete cognitive processes of driving, specifically, information acquisition and information processing. The authors delineate the theory, practice, and application of human factors knowledge and psychology to explain human errors that occur when acquiring information from the road environment. The book provides content on highway engineering, new technologies, vehicle, signage, VMS, and safety as well as information about the human factors on errors, situation awareness, workload, and fatigue.

Book Vision in Vehicles IV

Download or read book Vision in Vehicles IV written by I.D. Brown and published by North Holland. This book was released on 1993-02-11 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains contributions illuminating much of the current research occurring in the area of visual perception. It encompasses all aspects of vision and its relationship to vehicle design, including both the internal and external design of the vehicle as well as the perceptual and cognitive limitations of the vehicle controller. Issues specifically related to the vision of the driver are initially addressed and the problems of vehicle glazing and light transmission are considered. The major topics of visual perception and vehicle control are covered in three related chapters encompassing: collision avoidance, vehicle signalling systems and the acquisition of visual information. Moving on to the external environment and its relationship to vision, traffic signs are discussed. Approaches to the measurement and modelling of driver behaviour are dealt with and the area of telerobotic control of vehicles is considered. In-vehicle displays are covered in two related chapters addressing issues of visual workload and effects of display type. It is hoped that the book, contributed to by experts from a diverse range of disciplines, including optometrists, psychologists, physiologists, human factors specialists and engineers, will stimulate the progression of research in this area, as effectively as the preceding volumes did.
