  1. 1. Older car drivers - Needs of vehicle support for safe individual mobility

    Author : Thomas K Broberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Elderly driver; Collision avoidance; Older driver; On-road assessment; ADAS; Driver attitudes; Active Safety; Driver assist; Driver behaviour;

    Abstract : As the demographic is changing with the growth of the population of older citizens, concerns have been raised for this group in terms of mobility as well as traffic safety. In this context the automobile is an important means of transport. READ MORE

  2. 2. Driver Experience and Acceptance of Driver Support Systems - A Case of Speed Adaptation

    Author : Emeli Adell; Trafik och väg; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; speed support; ISA; driver support systems; Driver experiences; acceptance; UTAUT; ADAS; field trial;

    Abstract : Substantial research and development efforts are being made to add driver support systems to the arsenal of traffic safety measures. Obviously, the system cannot reduce fatalities and trauma until it is actually used. Hence, drivers’ experiences and acceptance of the system are of paramount importance. READ MORE

  3. 3. Evaluating vehicle stability support systems by measuring, analyzing, and modeling driver behavior

    Author : Gustav M Markkula; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; driver behavior; driver models; system evaluation; heavy trucks; driving simulators; active safety; electronic stability control;

    Abstract : This thesis presents an investigation of near-accident behavior of truck drivers, with and without support from an electronic stability control (ESC) system. A critical scenario, involving both collision avoidance and vehicle stabilization on a low-friction surface, was studied in a driving simulator. READ MORE

  4. 4. Adaptive driver information : the way forward?

    Author : Staffan Davidsson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Teknisk psykologi; Engineering Psychology;

    Abstract : Driver information is information that a driver needs to fulfil his or her goals of driving. Previously, information supported reliability in order to make the car work safely but, today, other attributes have become equally or more important. READ MORE

  5. 5. Adaptive Driver Information

    Author : Staffan Davidsson; Björn Peters; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Teknisk psykologi; Engineering Psychology;

    Abstract : New societal requirements and functional growth put new demand on future driver information. Simultaneously, new technology and IT capabilities makes it possible to constantly adapt the information given to the driver for different reasons. READ MORE
