Using On-board Driver Feedback Systems to Encourage Safe, Ecological and Efficient Driving: The Foot-LITE Project
نویسنده
چکیده
In response to increasing political and individual awareness of the need to address the social and environmental costs of unsafe, inefficient and highly polluting driving styles, the Foot-LITE research project seeks to deliver innovative driver/vehicle interface systems and services to encourage and hopefully persuade sustained changes to driving styles and wider travel behaviour. Stakeholders’ requirements help to define the functionalities of the system being developed in the context of a rapidly evolving market with many products potentially competing for Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) application or retrofitting to vehicles.

Road transport is a significant source of both safety and environmental concerns. With climate change and fuel prices increasingly prominent on social and political agendas, many drivers are turning their thoughts to fuel efficient or „green‟ (i.e., environmentally friendly) driving practices. Many vehicle manufacturers are satisfying this demand by offering green driving feedback or advice too...
متن کاملRoad Departure Avoidance System Based on the Driver Decision Estimator
In this paper a robust road departure avoidance system based on a closed-loop driver decision estimator (DDE) is presented. The main idea is that of incorporating the driver intent in the control of the vehicle. The driver decision estimator computes the vehicle look ahead lateral position based on the driver input and uses this position to establish the risk of road departure. To induce a risk...
متن کاملIntelligent Control System Design for Car Following Maneuver Based on the Driver’s Instantaneous Behavior
Due to the increasing demand for traveling in public transportation systems and increasing traffic of vehicles, nowadays vehicles are getting to be intelligent to increase safety, reduce the probability of accident and also financial costs. Therefore, today, most vehicles are equipped with multiple safety control and vehicle navigation systems. In the process of developing such systems, simulat...
متن کاملThe Design of Haptic Gas Pedal Feedback to Support Eco-driving
Previous literature suggests that haptic gas pedals can assist the driver in search of maximum fuel economy. This study investigated three haptic pedal designs, each with high and low intensities of feedback, in a rapid prototyping, paired comparison design. Twenty drivers took part, experiencing the systems in a high-fidelity driving simulator. Results suggested that drivers were best guided t...
متن کاملUsing Agent-Based Modeling to Predict the Diffusion of Safe Teenage Driving Behavior Through an Online Social Network
Objective: To use agent-based modeling to examine how peer influence in a social network affects behavior change among teenage drivers. Background: Teenagers are involved in more fatal driving crashes than any other age group. A solution to the problem is to utilize both feedback systems and online social networks to promote safe driving behavior. Methods: Using a combination of intention (from...
