Vision in Vehicles, 4
Description
This volume contains contributions illuminating much of the current research occurring in the area of visual perception. It encompasses
all aspects of vision and its relationship to vehicle design, including both the internal and external design of the vehicle as well
as the perceptual and cognitive limitations of the vehicle controller.
Issues specifically related to the vision of the driver are
initially addressed and the problems of vehicle glazing and light transmission are considered. The major topics of “visual perception
and vehicle control” are covered in three related chapters encompassing: collision avoidance, vehicle signalling systems and the acquisition
of visual information. Moving on to the external environment and its relationship to vision, traffic signs are discussed. Approaches
to the measurement and modelling of driver behaviour are dealt with and the area of telerobotic control of vehicles is considered. “In-vehicle
displays” are covered in two related chapters addressing issues of visual workload and effects of display type.
It is hoped that
the book, contributed to by experts from a diverse range of disciplines, including optometrists, psychologists, physiologists, human
factors specialists and engineers, will stimulate the progression of research in this area, as effectively as the preceding volumes did.
