  • Blind Spot Warning Interface Adapted to Older Drivers with Early Stage Visual Impairment
    BLIND SPOT WARNING INTERFACE ADAPTED TO OLDER DRIVERS WITH EARLY STAGE VISUAL IMPAIRMENT Julien Adrian Streetlab, Institut de la Vision France Julie Pieyre Streetlab, Institut de la Vision France Johan Lebrun Streetlab, Institut de la Vision France Saddek Mohand-Said CHNO Quinze-Vingts, CIC Inserm France Emmanuel Gutman Streetlab, Institut de la Vision France Paper Number 17-0190 ABSTRACT Research Question/Objective Advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) are found increasingly commonly in modern day cars. These systems should have their interfaces adapted to the target population to be completely effective and help prevent accidents. Our study is focused on the improvement in interface design of Blind Spot Warnings (BSWs). This ADAS is particularly relevant to issues with older driver’s physical limitations, errors with blind-spot checking and accident characteristics. However, the standard blind spot detection interface is often designed without taking into account age related visual impairment. Methods and Data Sources A BSWs interface adapted to major visual impairment was developed and studied. A driving simulator study was conducted, in which 14 participants aged from 62 to 76 took part, to compare our BSWs interface with a conventional BSWs interface. Participants performed two series of lane change tasks, with potential side collision scenarios, for each interface. Both subjective and objective data (oculometry, vehicle parameters) were collected. Results The results show that driving performance and comfort are enhanced by our dedicated interface. Drivers spend more time concentrating on the road with fewer fixations on the interface. It helps the driver keep their vision on the road by providing information in their peripheral vision.

  • Investigation of Driver's FOV and Related Ergonomics Using Laser Shadowgraphy from Automotive Interior

Abstract A new application of laser shadowgraphy in automotive design and driver’s ergonomics investigation is described. The technique is based on generating a characterizing plot for the vehicle’s Field of View (FOV). This plot is obtained by projecting a high divergence laser beam from the driver’s eyes cyclopean point, on a cylindrical screen installed around the tested vehicle. The resultant shadow-gram is photographed on several shots by a narrow field camera to form a complete panoramic seen for the screen. The panorama is then printed as a plane sheet FOV plot. The obtained plot is used to measure and to analyse the areal visual field, the eye and nick movement ranges in correlation with FOV, the horizontal visual blind zones, the visual maximum vertical angle and other related ergonomic parameters.

  • Here's an Overview of the Tips on Breaking in a New Car from Our Experts at Bmw.Com on Things to Do Before Your First Drive I
    HERE’S AN OVERVIEW OF THE TIPS ON BREAKING IN A NEW CAR FROM OUR EXPERTS AT BMW.COM ON THINGS TO DO BEFORE YOUR FIRST DRIVE IN YOUR NEW AUTOMOBILE: Things you need to know about your new car: Service: Where do I top up the fuel, engine oil, wiper fluid, engine coolant, and AdBlue? Where can I find the owner’s manual? Where can I find the spare wheel, breakdown kit, and vehicle toolkit? And where do I look for details about the tire pressure? Safety: What driver assistance systems are available and where can I find the buttons to use them? The best way to set up your new car: Connect your cell phone and save it in the system. Save your home address in the navigation system. Enter your preferred climate control settings. Configure the driver assistance systems to suit your personal needs. To ensure the optimum seat position: Set the distance from the seat to the pedals so that when you step on the brake or clutch, your knees are slightly bent. Select a seat height that gives you a good view of the road and the on-board instruments. Ensure that the backrest is as upright as possible. Make sure your head is not far from the headrest, your shoulders are in contact with the backrest, and you don’t need to stretch out your arms. It’s important that there’s a distance of about 12 inches between the steering wheel and your chest. When your wrist is on the upper rim of the steering wheel, your shoulders should still be touching the backrest.
