Problems of driver faults projections on his/her brain signals

摘要

Analyzing the reliability and safety of transportation, one can find that the activity of human being is the weakest point. Technical reliability of almost all transportation tools has improved quite a lot in recent years, however the human subject interacting with them has not changed too much, as concerns his/her reliability and safety of the respective necessary interaction. All driver faults, without respect to their seriousness project themselves on driver brain signals, before all on those, which are of electromagnetic nature. For minimizing the danger of such human caused accidental events appearance, a deeper analysis of those signals is to be considered as very important tool. In this contribution a set of pilot experimental results reached at simultaneous analysis of both electroencephalographic (EEG) and near infra-red (NIRS) signals analysis of drivers, exposed to influence of various kinds of attention load on adaptive driving simulator is presented. These results are expected to be a basis for recommendation for further deeper and wide scale analyses of various load influences on driver brain.
