Less Details

Transitioning between AD and manual control remains a critical challenge whenever new technologies are introduced in AVs. Audrey Nielot explores the strategies and technologies designed to effectively inform drivers when to take over control from an AV. Focusing on ADAS and their role in facilitating a smooth communication pathway between the AV and the driver, she uncovers various notification methods, the psychological impact of these notifications, and best practices for implementation. The aim is to enhance safety, comfort, and driver trust in AV technologies by ensuring clear and intuitive takeover requests.

Through this session, you will:

  • Deep dive into auditory, visual, and haptic feedback mechanisms to inform drivers when to resume control, and their effectiveness in various driving scenarios
  • Gain insights into how different takeover alert systems impact driver response times, stress levels, and overall acceptance of AV technology.
  • Discover guidelines for designing takeover requests that prioritize driver safety and minimize cognitive load, ensuring seamless transitions between automated and manual driving modes
