Michelle Reyes, John Lee, Yulan Liang, Joshua Hoffman, Ritchie HuangCapturing driver response to in-vehicle human-machine interface technologies using facial thermography
Conference paper
Measuring driver response to in-vehicle human-machine interface (HMI) systems is critical for the automotive design and evaluation process. Physiological measures provide a useful complement to perfor ...6/22/2009
Daniel McGehee, Oliver CarstenPerception 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
Cher Carney, Daniel McGehee, John Lee, Michelle Reyes, Mireille RabyUsing an event-triggered video intervention system to expand the supervised learning of newly licensed adolescent drivers
Journal paper
Objectives. We examined whether feedback from an event-triggered video intervention system reduced the number of safety-relevant driving errors made by newly licensed adolescents. Methods. We used a 1 ...6/1/2010
C. Jennissen, J. Marsico, J. Steffen, Tom Schnell, Daniel McGehee, G. DenningOptimizing seat length design to minimize extra passengers on all-terrain vehicles
Journal paper
(None listed)10/1/2010
David HeitbrinkScripting 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
John D. Lee, Daniel V. McGehee, Timothy L. Brown, Christian M. Richard, Omar Ahmad, Nicholas J. Ward, Shauna Hallmark, Joonbum LeeMatching 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
Daniel McGeheeThe building blocks of driver distraction policy
Journal paper
Communicating and translating science into policy takes time and patience. Moving empirical data and theoretical knowledge into the safety policy arena is an especially lively and complex process that ...12/20/2011
Timothy Brown, John Lee, Chris Schwarz, Dary Fiorentino, Anthony McDonald, Eric Traube, Eric NadlerDetection 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 VeitComparison 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 AhmadMaking 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
Dennis Durbin, Daniel McGehee, Donald Fisher, Anne McCarttSpecial considerations in distracted driving with teens
Journal paper
Novice teen drivers have long been known to have an increased risk of crashing, as well as increased tendencies toward unsafe and risky driving behaviors. Teens are unique as drivers for several reaso ...1/1/2014
Daniel McGeheeVisual 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
