SWOV researchers Tinga, Cleij, Jansen, Van der Kint and Van Nes coauthored the article 'Human machine interface design for continuous support of mode awareness during automated driving: An online simulation' in the Journal of Transportation Research.
In the transition towards higher levels of vehicle automation, one of the key concerns with regards to human factors is to avoid mode confusion, when drivers misinterpret the driving mode and therewith misjudge their own tasks and responsibility. To enhance mode awareness, a clear human centered Human Machine Interface (HMI) is essential.
