Accompanying the development of road-based cooperative systems: ergonomics analysis to construct a roadmap for user testing

摘要

Road-based cooperative systems are based on a principle of local transmissions betweenvehicles and elements of the infrastructure located within the same geographical perimeter(V2V, V2I). Contents of various kinds aim to inform drivers to assist them in makingdecisions regarding how to manage vehicle dynamics as well as to adapt their journey to localconditions. The possibility of occasionally transferring the driving task to the vehicle is alsobeing considered. This contribution was produced as part of the first ever French FOT,Score@F, dedicated to confronting these systems to the public. It took place in the earlystages of the project, in order to propose a roadmap of issues to submit to formal inquirybefore launching these new intelligent systems. The methodology relies on analyzing systemfunctionalities in order to define axes for user evaluation. Based on a critical confrontationwith a classical model of information transfer, we identify three functional dimensionsdefining these systems. These allow us to categorize road-based cooperative systems asinformation broadcast systems melding two worlds together: that of assistance, and that ofnavigation.
