Evaluation of Driver's Eye-catching Effect in Highway Tunnel Entrance Zone
To comprehensively and systematically evaluate the impact of visual attraction in the entrance zone of highway tunnels on the visual performance of drivers'eye-catching effects,this study carried out the natural driving experiments with 30 subjects.The experiment collected eye movement data of drivers under different visual attraction conditions in the entrance zone of highway tunnels,selected eye-catching effect sensitive evaluation indicators based on factor analysis method,and constructed linear mixed effect models and data envelopment analysis models.The study then analyzed the impact characteristics and mechanism of visual attraction in the entrance zone of highway tunnels on the visual performance of drivers'eye-catching effects.The results show that the sensitive indicators of drivers'eye-catching effects are gaze duration,pupil diameter,scanning duration and scanning amplitude.Different visual attraction conditions in the entrance zone of highway tunnels have a significant impact on the visual performance and comprehensive efficiency of drivers'eye-catching effects,and are significantly affected by individual characteristics factors such as drivers'age and driving experience,while gender factors have no significant impact on them.The existence of visual attraction will affect the normal visual performance of drivers to varying degrees,reducing its rationality and effectiveness.The visual attention level of drivers under the visual attraction condition of prompt slogan is the worst,the degree of visual cognitive load is the highest,and the negative impact of eye-catching effect is the greatest,followed by the billboard condition.
