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. -

Rules and Options
Rules and Options The author has attempted to draw as much as possible from the guidelines provided in the 5th edition Players Handbooks and Dungeon Master's Guide. Statistics for weapons listed in the Dungeon Master's Guide were used to develop the damage scales used in this book. Interestingly, these scales correspond fairly well with the values listed in the d20 Modern books. Game masters should feel free to modify any of the statistics or optional rules in this book as necessary. It is important to remember that Dungeons and Dragons abstracts combat to a degree, and does so more than many other game systems, in the name of playability. For this reason, the subtle differences that exist between many firearms will often drop below what might be called a "horizon of granularity." In D&D, for example, two pistols that real world shooters could spend hours discussing, debating how a few extra ounces of weight or different barrel lengths might affect accuracy, or how different kinds of ammunition (soft-nosed, armor-piercing, etc.) might affect damage, may be, in game terms, almost identical. This is neither good nor bad; it is just the way Dungeons and Dragons handles such things. Who can use firearms? Firearms are assumed to be martial ranged weapons. Characters from worlds where firearms are common and who can use martial ranged weapons will be proficient in them. Anyone else will have to train to gain proficiency— the specifics are left to individual game masters. Optionally, the game master may also allow characters with individual weapon proficiencies to trade one proficiency for an equivalent one at the time of character creation (e.g., monks can trade shortswords for one specific martial melee weapon like a war scythe, rogues can trade hand crossbows for one kind of firearm like a Glock 17 pistol, etc.). -

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. -

That moment when an author dots the last period to his manuscript, and then rises up from the study-chair to shake its many and bulky pages together is almost as exciting an occasion as -when he takes a quire or so of foolscap and sits down to write the first line of it. Many and mingled feelings pervade his mind, and hope and fear vie with one another and alternately overcome one another, until at length the author finds some slight relief for his feelings and a kind of excuse for his book, by writing a preface, in which he states briefly the nature and character of the work, and begs the pardon of the reader for his presumption in undertaking it. A winter in Kashmir must be experienced to be realised.
