Headlight glare resistance and driver age.

Development of a Headlight Glare Simulator for a Driving Simulator.

We describe the design and construction of a headlight glare simulator to be used with a driving simulator. The system combines a modified programmable off-the-shelf LED display board and a beamsplitter so that the LED lights, representing the headlights of oncoming cars, are superimposed over the driving simulator headlights image. Ideal spatial arrangement of optical components to avoid misal...

Headlight Glare Simulator for a Driving Simulator 2.0

In this paper, we would like to introduce a second generation of headlight glare simulator to be used with a driving simulator that significantly improves spatial and brightness accuracy of previously developed prototype headlight glare simulator (Fullerton & Peli, 2009). The system combined a programmable off–the-shelf LED display board and a beamsplitter so that the LED lights, representing h...

Impact of Oncoming Headlight Glare With Cataracts: A Pilot Study

Purpose: Oncoming headlight glare (HLG) reduces the visibility of objects on the road and may affect the safety of nighttime driving. With cataracts, the impact of oncoming HLG is expected to be more severe. We used our custom HLG simulator in a driving simulator to measure the impact of HLG on pedestrian detection by normal vision subjects with simulated mild cataracts and by patients with rea...
