Research Assistant
Jan 2019 - May 2020 University of Michigan-Dearborn
Conducting research on "Examination of Drivers’ Responses to Take-over Requests with Different Warning Systems During Conditional Automated Driving".
-
The objective was to examine the effects of different warning types on drivers’ takeover responses while they were engaged in different non-driving tasks during conditional automated driving.
-
A simulated SAE Level-3 automated system scenario was designed using SimCreator and SimVista software.
-
The study was done in a Lab Setting by recruiting participants for interacting with the driver simulator at the University of Michigan-Dearborn.
