Timothy Brown, Yefei He, Cheryl Roe, Tom Schnell	Is More Better? Night Vision Enhancement System's Pedestrian Warning Modes and Older Drivers Journal paper	Pedestrian fatalities as a result of vehicle collisions are much more likely to happen at night than during day time. Poor visibility due to darkness is believed to be one of the causes for the higher ...	1/1/2010

Daniel McGehee, Oliver Carsten	Perception and biodynamics in pre-crash response Journal paper	This research seeks to better understand unalerted driver response just prior to a serious vehicle crash. Few studies have been able to view a crash from the inside—with a camera focused on the driv ...	1/1/2010

Michelle Reyes, John Lee	Simulator Data Reduction Book chapter	Effective use of driving simulators requires considerable technical and methodological skill along with considerable background knowledge. Acquiring the requisite knowledge and skills can be extraordi ...	4/25/2011

Chris Schwarz, Yefei He, Andrew Veit	Eye Tracking in a COTS PC-based Driving Simulator: Implementation and Applications Conference paper	An eye tracker has been integrated with the NADS MiniSim, a COTS PC-based driving simulator based on the large motion-based NADS-1. This work was motivated by increasing use of eye tracker data for bo ...	6/1/2011

David Heitbrink	Scripting Automation for a Graphical Scenario Authoring System Conference paper	Scenario authoring at the National Advanced Driving Simulator (NADS) uses an interactive graphical tool that permits non-technical people to create scenarios without requiring any programming experien ...	6/1/2011

Amanda D. Ohlhauser, Linda Ng Boyle, Dawn Marshall, Omar Ahmad	Drivers’ Behavior Through a Yellow Light: Effects of Distraction and Age Conference paper	The decision to proceed through an intersection once the traffic signal has changed to yellow may increase the risk for a collision. This study sought to understand how age differences, cell phone use ...	9/1/2011

John D. Lee, Daniel V. McGehee, Timothy L. Brown, Christian M. Richard, Omar Ahmad, Nicholas J. Ward, Shauna Hallmark, Joonbum Lee	Matching Simulator Characteristics to Highway Design Problems Journal paper	Driving simulators hold much promise for addressing roadway design issues. However, although simulators have demonstrated their value in experimental research addressing driver performance, their abil ...	12/1/2011

Anthony McDonald, Chris Schwarz, John Lee, Timothy L. Brown	Real-Time Detection of Drowsiness Related Lane Departures Using Steering Wheel Angle Conference paper	Drowsy driving is a significant factor in many motor vehicle crashes in the United States and across the world. Efforts to reduce these crashes have developed numerous algorithms to detect both acute ...	10/26/2012

Mark Wilkinson, Timothy Brown, Omar Ahmad	The NADS Description and Capabilities in Vision-Related Reserach Journal paper	This article reviews the advantages of performing driving research in a high-fidelity driving simulator where the driver can be challenged in ways that could lead to property damage and personal injur ...	12/27/2012

John Gaspar, Mark Neider, Arthur Kramer	Falls risk and simulated driving performance in older adults Journal paper	Declines in executive function and dual-task performance have been related to falls in older adults, and recent research suggests that older adults at risk for falls also show impairments on real-worl ...	1/19/2013

Timothy Brown, John Lee, Chris Schwarz, Dary Fiorentino, Anthony McDonald, Eric Traube, Eric Nadler	Detection of driver Impairment from drowsiness Conference paper	Drowsy driving is a significant contributor to death and injury crashes on our nation’s highways accounting for more than 80000 crashes and 850 fatalities per year. Recent research using data from t ...	5/27/2013

Gary Kay, Omar Ahmad, Timothy Brown, Andrew Veit	Comparison of the miniSim and STISim Driving Simulators for the Detection of Impairment: An Alcohol Validation Study Conference paper	Summary: Detection of alcohol impairment is often used to evaluate the sensitivity of a protocol to detect the effects of other types of impairment. This study was designed to compare the sensitivity ...	9/22/2013

John Lee, Nic Ward, Erwin Boer, Timothy Brown, Stacy Balk, Omar Ahmad	Making driving simulators more useful for behavioral research – Simulator characteristics comparison and model-based transformation Project report	A central issue in making simulators useful for highway and traffic engineers concerns how well driver behavior in the simulator corresponds to driver behavior in the real world. Simulator fidelity pl ...	10/1/2013

Daniel McGehee	Visual and cognitive distraction metrics in the age of the smart phone Journal paper	Sources of distraction are numerous and varied, and defining and measuring distraction and attention is complicated. The driving task requires constant adjustments and reallocation of attention to cog ...	3/1/2014

John Gaspar, Mark Neider, James Crowell, Aubrey Lutz, Henry Kaczmarski, Arthur Kramer	Are gamers better crossers? An examination of action video game experience and dual task effects in a simulated street crossing task Journal paper	A high-fidelity street crossing simulator was used to test the hypothesis that experienced action video game players are less vulnerable than non-gamers to dual task costs in complex tasks. BACKGROUND ...	5/1/2014

A.D. McDonald, John Lee, Chris Schwarz, Timothy Brown	Steering in a Random Forest Ensemble Learning for Detecting Drowsiness-Related Lane Departures Journal paper	OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to design and evaluate an algorithm for detecting drowsiness-related lane departures by applying a random forest classifier to steering wheel angle data.
