Vehicle Iconic Surround Observer: Visualization platform for intelligent driver support applications

摘要

With the introduction of intelligent driver support systems, vehicles have become more comfortable and safer. But, these systems require new sensors and the information they contain must be efficiently presented to the driver. The cognitive demands for interpreting these signals may prove to be a distraction with negative impact on driving performance. This work describes a unified visualization scheme, the Vehicle Iconic Surround Observer, capable of introducing new surround sensors into a common display environment which quickly conveys critical surround context with minimal driver interpretation.
