  1. Human Factors for IntelliDrive IntelliDrive Safety Workshop July 20, 2010 Stephanie C. Binder National Highway Traffic Safety Administration US Department of Transportation

  2. What is human factors? • The application of knowledge about human abilities, limitations, and other characteristics to the design of equipment, tasks, and jobs • Human-centered design • Robust set of evaluation methods and design heuristics • For IntelliDrive, it will focus on interface designs that are effective without adding distraction 2

  3. Human Factors for IntelliDrive Goal: To develop guidelines to ensure IntelliDrive interfaces are effective without increasing distraction. • Multiple Users: • Passenger vehicles • Heavy trucks • Transit operators • Multiple Applications: • Safety • Sustainability • Mobility

  4. Track 1: Problem Definition • Goal: To better understand the distraction problem in the vehicle fleet • Outcomes: A way to better monitor distraction for all devices/technologies • Main tasks: • Analyze National Motor Vehicle Crash Causation Study • Plan for analysis of SHRP • Improve reporting of distraction

  5. Track 2: Performance Metrics • Goal: To develop performance metrics (i.e., to establish tests) to measure distraction potential. • Outcomes: Objective test procedures, ratings of devices. • Main tasks: • Review of current guidelines • Best practices for interfaces

  6. Track 3: Integration Strategy • Goals: To determine how best to integrate multiple devices (including in-vehicle and portable), warnings to minimize distraction • Outcomes: Integration strategies • Main tasks: • Develop concept of operations • Develop test procedures • Assess implementation

  7. Track 4: Long-term Exposure • Goal: To understand long-term driver adaptation to better understand how driver assistance technologies impact safety • Outcomes: Better estimates of benefits, optimization of these driver assistance technologies through interface design • Main tasks: • Determine feasibility of a field operational study • If feasible, conduct the study

  8. Track 5: Outreach • Goal: To engage all stakeholders to ensure success of the program • Outcomes: Collaborations that will result in innovative research designs, stakeholder buy-in, and a consistent message from the program • Main tasks: Various meetings, including a kickoff later this year

  9. V2V Plan: Tracks 5 and 7 • Track 5: Driver Issues • Goal: To determine the best interface design characteristics (effectiveness, driver acceptance) • Outcomes: Provides data on other aspects of interface design to further refine guidelines • Track 7d: Commercial Vehicle HF/Driver Issues • Goal: To develop guidelines to look at message delivery, workload • Outcome: Set of guidelines that will be leveraged through HFID

  10. NHTSA Distraction Plan

  11. Primary Outcomes • Better understanding of driver behavior • Improved driver assistance technologies • Interface design guidelines for IntelliDrive technologies 12
