Driver's situational awareness in takeover process of L3 automated vehicles
In this paper,situational awareness of drivers engaged in different types of non-driving-related tasks(NDRTs)is conducted for takeover readiness of L3 automated vehicles.Simulation testing scenarios are built based on driving simulator platform.Then,the situational awareness readiness was discussed and analyzed through the situational awareness questionnaire and the driver's eye movement behavior measurement.Experimental results show that as NDRTs occupy more sensory modalities,the driver's attention will be less focused on the driving task,and the attention to the elements of the driving environment will be correspondingly reduced,which has a negative impact on the recovery of situational awareness.
