核心概念
The study explores the impact of interconnected eHMIs on pedestrian safety, highlighting the effectiveness and challenges of this concept.
摘要
The study delves into the use of external Human-Machine Interfaces (eHMIs) in autonomous vehicles (AVs) to enhance pedestrian safety. Results show that interconnected eHMIs can improve safety feelings and encourage cautious crossings. However, design elements like the color red can lead to confusion. The research emphasizes the importance of refined user education for effective implementation.
Policymakers advocate for using eHMIs in AVs to communicate with pedestrians. The study compares interconnected eHMIs against no eHMI and unconnected eHMI conditions. Results indicate that interconnected eHMIs enhance safety perceptions and promote careful crossing decisions. However, certain design aspects, such as using red color, can cause confusion and discomfort among pedestrians.
The research aims to bridge communication gaps between AVs and pedestrians through innovative visual-based interconnected eHMI systems. By evaluating these systems in a virtual reality study, the study sheds light on pedestrian safety, cognitive load, trust factors, and the influence of prior knowledge on user perceptions.
