  1. Human Interaction with Intelligent Transportation Systems Committee Meeting 1 - December 17, 2010

  2. Agenda • Surface Transportation System and the role of ITS • Committee Mission • Topics of Interest • Activities • World Congress Session Planning • Featured Speaker: Dr. Justin Owens (VTTI) • Comparing Handheld and Voice-Control Interfaces when Using Mobile Phones and Portable Music Players

  3. Surface Transportation System • Transforms fuel into the fast and safe arrival of people and cargo to a destination • Done through interaction of: • Personnel Subsystem – Drivers • Technological Subsystem – Vehicles • Environmental Subsystem – Infrastructure, Weather • Organization Design • Top-down: Laws, Enforcement, Education • Bottom-up: Individual Driver Behavior • Current organizational design is broken • In 2008, 5.8 million crashes occurred • 34,017 of which were fatal Drivers Vehicles Infrastructure/ Environment Organizational Design

  4. Surface Transportation System • The surface transportation system as we know it is preparing for a dramatic organizational redesign • Increased Communication amongst STS elements with technology • Creates cohesion • Provides data on element interaction • Data can be mined • Information gathered used to improve system performance • Joint optimization will be highly dependent on the reliability of the vehicle and infrastructure technologies and their effect on drivers Drivers Vehicles Infrastructure/ Environment Organizational Design

  5. Transportation System Design • Personnel subsystem components arranged serially • Driver is the only component that can perceive, decide, and initiate driving response for a vehicle • Total Reliability = R1 x R2 x R3 x … x Rn • Total reliability always below weakest link • Driving task demands can exceed driver capabilities • Driver error accounts for 45% - 75% of roadway crashes • Technology can increase system reliability by arranging components in parallel to driver functions • Both driver and vehicle sensors can perceive threats • Both driver and algorithms can decide responses • RT = 1 – (1-R1)(1-R2)(…)(1-Rn) • Total reliability always greater than most reliable component • Key is for driver reliability to not degrade with additional components • e.g., Driver reliability dependent on trust in technology

  6. Role of ITS • Driver Assistance Systems • Travel advisory systems to improve driver expectation • Route selection, road and weather conditions • Indirect viewing systems to improve spatial awareness • Collision warning systems to direct attention to crash threat • Collision avoidance systems to initiate avoidance maneuver if driver fails to do so • Driver-Optimized Interfaces • Needed to safely deliver information and mitigate driver distraction • Workload management • Needed to adjust/deactivate technological components when driving task demands are high • Combination of Efforts • Help to uphold driver reliability • Increase total system reliability by adding redundancy from driver assistance systems

  7. Mission • To develop an understanding of the issues pertaining to drivers' use of ITS-related technology while driving • To disseminate this knowledge to the ITS America members so that it can be effectively leveraged

  8. Topics of Interest (from Wiki) • Driver Distraction from ITSs • Privacy Concerns Pertaining to ITSs • Driver Acceptance in ITSs • Driver Trust in ITSs • Aging Drivers Interaction with ITSs • Teenage Drivers Interaction with ITSs • Driver Adaptation to ITSs • Interface Design to Promote Safe and Effective Use of ITSs • Vehicle-to-Vehicle and Vehicle-to-Roadside Communications • On-Board Placement of Equipment and Driver Message Sets • Sharing Traffic, Weather, Roadway and Other Information with the Dispatcher and the Driver • Please post your topics to the wiki http://safety.itsa.wikispaces.net/Human+Interaction+with+ITS+Systems+Committee

  9. Potential Committee Activities • Discussion of research areas on the Wiki • http://safety.itsa.wikispaces.net/Human+Interaction+with+ITS+Systems+Committee • Synthesizing previous research on topics of interest • Developing guidelines based on the research syntheses • Planning sessions for ITS World Congress

  10. World Congress Session Ideas • What would you find interesting? • Discussion Panel Proposed
