ABSTRACT
Adaptive cruise control (ACC) systems have several operational modes. Drivers may be unaware of the mode where they are operating, which can cause traffic crashes. To suppress mode confusion, we developed a new interface design methodology in which the designer checks the consistency between the machine and interface model. If two models are inconsistent, the designer modify the machine model, which is called engineer-oriented approach, or modify the interface model, called user-centered approach, of modify both models. Based on engineer- and user-centered approaches, two different ACC user interfaces were designed. In addition, human-in-the-loop experiments were performed using a driving simulator. The experimental results showed that the user-oriented design approach provides a more compact, acceptable, and effective interface that can reduce the driver's mode confusions significantly.

Safer adaptive cruise control for traffic wave dampening
ICCPS '21: Proceedings of the ACM/IEEE 12th International Conference on Cyber-Physical SystemsThis project aims to develop an adaptive cruise controller for vehicles at low speeds in stop-and-go traffic. Current adaptive cruise controllers can use RADAR sensors to follow a vehicle at high speeds (greater than 18 mph), but reach their limits if ...
Adaptive cruise control system based on improved variable time headway spacing strategy
In the following process, in order to improve the driving safety and road utilization of the adaptive cruise control (ACC) system, a variable time headway spacing strategy was studied. In view of the fact that the variable spacing strategy cannot adapt to ...
Trust and the use of adaptive cruise control: a study of a cut-in situation
This paper analyses driver trust and performance when using adaptive cruise control (ACC) in a situation involving a truck cutting into the lane in front of the ACC-equipped vehicle. The study was carried out using a mini driving simulator and a ...
