Author(s) Title Abstract Publication Date
Omar Ahmad, David Heitbrink, Chris Schwarz, Gregory WagnerMeasuring the Latency of the NADS-1 Simulator
Conference paper
A simulator’s latency or transport delay refers to the time delay between an operator input and the associated the visual output. In the world of driving simulators, latency measures how much time e ...6/28/2016
Omar Ahmad, Timothy BrownA Comparison of Transportation Research Driving Simulators
Technical note
In considering the available simulators for use in automotive research, the primary considerations are availability for public research, visual system capacity, motion cuing capacity, and sufficient s ...6/5/2016
David Heitbrink, Andrew Veit, Dave Muller, Stephen CableNADS Imaging System Upgrade
Conference paper
After many years of service, the National Advanced Driving Simulator needed a new imaging system. The existing projectors and image generator [IG] had become outdated and worn out. The old projector s ...7/7/2015
Mark Wilkinson, Timothy Brown, Omar AhmadThe 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
Chris Schwarz, Yefei He, Andrew VeitEye 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
Yefei HeNADS MiniSim Driving Simulator
Technical note
The NADS MiniSim driving simulator is a highly flexible PC-based driving simulation system. It uses the same advanced technologies built into the more sophisticated large NADS simulators, at a fractio ...9/30/2006
Chris SchwarzNADS Vehicle Dynamics Typical Modeling Data
Technical note
The National Advanced Driving Simulator (NADS) vehicle dynamics models are high-fidelity multi-body models. Suspension elements are modeled as bodies, in addition to the chassis; and non-linear relati ...8/14/2006
Ginger S. Watson, Yiannis E. Papelis, Omar AhmadDesign of Simulator Scenarios to Study the Effectiveness of Electronic Stability Control Systems
Conference paper
The mission of the National Advanced Driving Simulator is to conduct highway safety research that will reduce the annual loss of life on US roadways. The NADS is particularly well suited in its abilit ...1/22/2006
Chris SchwarzTwo Mitigation Strategies for Motion System Limits
Conference paper
Limited workspace is a challenge for all motion-based simulators, whether they are large excursion systems, like the NADS, or smaller simulators utilizing only Stewart Platforms. Two approaches for ad ...11/1/2005
Sunil Bulusu, Yiannis Papelis, Bin Chen, Matt Schikore, Omar AhmadEmbedded Data: A Step Forward in the Data Reduction Process
Conference paper
A key problem with data collected during experimental studies is the expeditious reduction and delivery of reduced data. It is not unusual to generate over 500 MB of raw data for a 20-minute drive on ...11/1/2005
