Popis: | Engaging in non-driving related tasks while driving (secondary tasks) can impair driving. Conversely, on monotonous or long drives secondary tasks may help fatigued drivers maintain alertness and vigilance. This potential benefit of secondary task engagement has received considerably less attention relative to the potential negative safety consequences. Vehicles are increasingly equipped with advanced infotainment centers and in-vehicle displays – increasing opportunities for secondary task engagement. Concurrently, vehicle automation can take over many of the driver’s tasks potentially resulting in underload and passive fatigue, while also potentially allowing for engagement in secondary tasks. Clarifying the distinctions between situations of unsafe versus acceptable or even potentially beneficial secondary task engagement is critical for automated vehicle safety. This panel will bring together experts in the diverse fields of driving, attention, and vehicle automation to discuss this important issue. |
