Abstract:
Anecdotal evidence indicates that car passengers develop motion sickness when they experience unexpected and/or sustained discrepancies between physical and visual motion cues (e.g. while reading during the travel). This issue is likely to become more deleterious in autonomous vehicles, where passengers may be facing away from the driving direction and engaged in non-driving activities. We are testing the efficacy of in-car solutions that will constantly display to all passengers additional, non-invasive visual information on the current and imminent vehicle body motion. The goal is to minimise the perceived sensory mismatch and increase passengers’ situational awareness, thus improving safety and comfort.
