Using Simplified Grammar for Voice Commands to Decrease Driver Distraction

摘要

Today's car is considered a Cyber Physical System implying a shift of control and management of the car's features to complex onboard software. Since the computer has taken control over most of the in-car driving and entertainment (infotainment) activities, driver distraction has become one of the primary reasons for car-related fatal accidents. As a result, we need to decrease driver distraction despite the growing presence of cockpit interactive digital technologies. Using voice-based commands is a potential solution to decrease visual distraction but it causes significant cognitive distraction. In this paper, we present a new method for voice-based commands to decreasing the cognitive distraction while using command based voice inputs.
