摘要: |
The goal of this project was to design one or two studies involving traffic engineering and human factors that could be conducted in the UCF driving simulator instead of relying on actual field test data. Two separate projects were chosen. The first involved the subject of gap acceptance by drivers. Published data for gap acceptance for a specific type of merging maneuver was compared to the experimental results obtained in the driving simulator under similar merging conditions. The second study was a human factors investigation of a radar based safety warning system using in-vehicle voice and text warnings to alert drivers about the presence of impending conditions requiring their attention. |
