Study on the evaluation of virtual side-view mirrors using IVE

摘要

It is commonly believed that current door mirrors cause problem of “forward carelessness” associated with the eye movement.However, technology to project information of side-view mirrors in the forward field of view is not yet. To solve the forwardcarelessness problem, here I study what happens when actually there is information of side-view mirrors in the forward field ofview by using the Immersive Virtual Environment to create a “virtual side-view mirrors”. Here I found that eye movement by thevirtual side-view mirrors becomes easy. In addition, it indicates that virtual side-view mirrors is beneficial than current side-viewmirrors in term of safety. These results provide to the future development of the mirror-less car.
