Identifying Your Car 75 Identifying Your Car 75 Model Years A model year does not necessarily coincide with the year in which the car was built. For example, it may be seen from the following chart that while a car built in January 1972 is indeed a 1972 model year car, another one built in August of that year is a 1973 model year car. There are several different reasons for this. One reason is that it is easier to bring in changes in a model's specification when production has been halted already for a holiday shut down. Another reason is that motor shows usually took place in the Autumn and Winter, displaying the following year's new or updated models. Detailed here are the Sprite and Midget model years relevant to this catalogue. Model Model Year First chassis no.

  • 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.

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.
