چکیده

Conditions of high and low optic flow were generated in a display used for a driving simulator. Thirty drivers were requested to produce vehicle speeds of either 30 or 60 mph with the geometric field of view at 25, 55, or 85 visual degrees. Drivers overestimated the production of 30 by 20 mph. It was also found that the production of speed was highly dependent on the geometric field of view. These results suggest that optic flow presented in a driving simulator display does not correspond with optic flow found in real-world driving. 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Visual scale factor for speed perception

Speed perception is an important task depending mainly on optic flow that the driver must perform continuously to control his/her vehicle. Unfortunately it appears that in some driving simulators speed perception is under estimated, leading into speed production higher than in real conditions. Perceptual validity is then not good enough to study driver’s behavior. To solve this problem, a techn...

Simulation Sickness Comparison between a Limited Field of View Virtual Reality Head Mounted Display (oculus) and a Medium Range Field of View Static Ecological Driving Simulator (eco2)

In this article, an experimental procedure is presented in order to evaluate the role of having HMD oculus and (Eco2 driving simulator) in terms of driving simulation sickness. The driving simulation sickness is investigated with respect to SSQ (simulator sickness questionnaire) and vestibular dynamics (head movements) of the driver participants for a specific driving scenario. The scenario of ...
