  1. AUTOMATED DRIVING PUT NEW DEMANDS ON DRIVING EVALUATION METHODS Camilla Grane Ph.D. in EngineeringPsychology Luleå University ofTechnology SWEDEN

  2. NEW PROJECT • NES 2012 • Presented a developedmethod for evaluatingdrivingperformance • Stas Krupenia representing SCANIA AB (trucks) asked ”whatif the vehiclesareautonomous” • MODAS – Methods for Designing Autonomous Systems • Scania • The InteractiveInstitute • Uppsala University • Luleå University ofTechnology

  3. NEW PROJECT • NES 2012 • Presented a developedmethod for evaluatingdrivingperformance • Stas Krupenia representing SCANIA AB (trucks) asked ”whatif the vehiclesareautonomous” • MODAS – Methods for Designing Autonomous Systems • Scania • The InteractiveInstitute • Uppsala University • Luleå University ofTechnology The NES Conference is great!!!

  4. LEVELS OF AUTOMATED DRIVING • Assisting features • Cruise control • ABS-breaking • … • Semi-autonomousdriving • The cardirect or take over action whenneeded • Autonomousdriving • The car is capableofsensingitsenvironment and navigatingwithout human input

  5. “THE SELF-DRIVING CAR IS LESS THAN A DECADE AWAY” • Alan Taub, vice president of Global Research and Development at General Motors, www.autoguide.com GM, www.AUTOGUIDE.com

  6. MEANING, KITT WILL BECAME REALITY • Autonomouscar in Knight Rider, 1982

  7. ALREADY HISTORY (AS DEMO CARS) • 1926:Achen Motor demonstrated the radio-controlled "phantom motor car" at the streets of Milwaukee • … • 1960: RCA Corporation demonstrated a driverless car which drove on an "electronic highway" – a road with electronics built into the asphalt that could determine the presence and velocity of any metallic vehicle on its surface. • … • 2001: the US Government demonstrated the ability of unmanned ground vehicles to navigate miles of difficult off-road terrain, avoiding obstacles such as rocks and trees. • … • Today there are several autonomous demonstration cars

  8. ONE EXAMPLE… BMW 5-series CDC ConnectedDriveConnect www.BMWCOOP.com

  9. THE FUTURE IS CLOSE

  10. THE FUTURE IS CLOSE The 2014 Mercedes S-Class willhave the option ofautonomoussteering, breaking, laneguidance, accidentavoidance, and driver fatiguedetection

  11. THE FUTURE IS CLOSE The 2014 Mercedes S-Class willhave the option ofautonomoussteering, breaking, laneguidance, accidentavoidance, and driver fatiguedetection By 2020 Volvo expectsaccident-free-cars and ”road trains” in whichindividualcarsareelectronicallyguided by a driver in a leadvehicle

  12. THE GOALS WITH AUTOMATED DRIVING • Increasedrivingsafety • Increaseenvironmentalsavings • And to make it alrighttosendthat SMS…

  13. NEGATIVE EFFECTS UNKNOWN • New systems designedto support and helpcouldalso cause problems • Cruise-control make drivers passive and affecttheir break reaktion timenegativelly • Automation systems willchange the roleof the driver from activeto passive • How passive is OK? Is it OK to fall asleep? Howshouldautonomous systems be evaluated, whatare the possible negative effects???

  14. MEASURING PERFORMANCE • Evaluationmeasuresusedtoday: • Lane keeping • Break reaktion time • Hazarddetection • …

  15. MEASURING PERFORMANCE • Evaluationmeasuresusedtoday: • Lane keeping • Break reaktion time • Hazarddetection • … • Thesemeasureswillbecomemeaningless in the future

  16. MEASURING PERFORMANCE • Evaluationmeasuresoftoday: • Lane keeping- the car is steering • Break reaktion time • Hazarddetection • … • Thesemeasureswillbecomemeaninglessin the future

  17. MEASURING PERFORMANCE • Evaluationmeasuresoftoday: • Lane keeping- the caris steering • Break reaktion time- the carcontrolls the breaks • Hazarddetection • … • Thesemeasureswillbecomemeaninglessin the future

  18. MEASURING PERFORMANCE • Evaluationmeasuresoftoday: • Lane keeping- the car is steering • Break reaktion time- the carcontrolls the breaks • Hazarddetection- the cardetectsobstacles • … • Thesemeasureswillbecomemeaninglessin the future

  19. OUR CHALLANGE • Define the new driver role • Definecritical situations • Develop new test methods • Situation awareness? • Drowsiness? • Alertness? • Trust? • … • Trustworthiness? • Guessability? • Usability? • …
