摘要: The Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA) Turner-Fairbank Highway Research Center in McLean, Virginia, includes a Driver Performance Laboratory. The laboratory's mission is to improve highway design elements and operations by obtaining information on driver performance and applying that information to traffic engineering and the design of in-vehicle information systems. A distinguishing feature of the Driver Performance Laboratory is its four experimental facilities, which complement each other and allow researchers to study complex issues in a sequential, progressive manner. The sign simulator provides the means to evaluate driver recognition and comprehension of highway signs. The part-task driving simulator is frequently used to test prototypes of in-vehicle displays. The full-task driving simulator obtains measures of driver performance under varying, but safe, conditions, and the instrumented vehicle enables research to be conducted in the natural driving environment.
