Recent years have seen growing interest in the development of self-driving vehicles that promise (or threaten) to replace human drivers with intelligent software. However, current self-driving cars still require human supervision and prompt…
As in automated driving the driver becomes a passenger, carsickness might reduce comfort for susceptible individuals. Insights in the prevalence of carsickness and its modulating factors are considered useful for the development of…
The well-being of older adults relies significantly on maintaining balance and mobility. As physical ability declines, older adults often accept the need for assistive devices. However, existing walkers frequently fail to consider user…
By 2030, the senior population aged 65 and older is expected to increase by over 50%, significantly raising the number of older drivers on the road. Drivers over 70 face higher crash death rates compared to those in their forties and…
Technological advancements focus on developing comfortable and acceptable driving characteristics in autonomous vehicles. Present driving functions predominantly possess predefined parameters, and there is no universally accepted driving…
The application of routing algorithms to real-world situations is a widely studied research topic. Despite this, routing algorithms and applications are usually developed for a general purpose, meaning that certain groups, such as ageing…
The increasing number of accidents caused by alcohol-impaired driving has prompted the development of integrated safety systems in vehicles to monitor driver behavior and prevent crashes. This paper explores how drivers perceive these…
The worldwide population is aging and countries are facing ongoing challenges in improving the safety of elderly pedestrians. In this work, single-file movement of the elderly are experimentally compared with that of different age groups.…
New challenges on transport systems are emerging due to the advances that the current paradigm is experiencing. The breakthrough of the autonomous car brings concerns about ride comfort, while the pollution concerns have arisen in recent…
Seniors residing in rural areas often encounter limited accessibility to opportunities, resources, and services. This paper introduces a model proposing that both aging and rural residency are factors contributing to the restricted…
Driver drowsiness has caused a large number of serious injuries and deaths on public roads and incurred billions of taxpayer dollars in costs. Hence, monitoring of drowsiness is critical to reduce this burden on society. This paper surveys…
Alertness monitoring in the context of driving improves safety and saves lives. Computer vision based alertness monitoring is an active area of research. However, the algorithms and datasets that exist for alertness monitoring are primarily…
Selfie taking is a popular social pastime, and is an important part of socialising online. This activity is popular with young people but is also becoming more prevalent with older generations. Despite this, there are a number of…
Research conducted previously has focused on either attitudes toward or behaviors associated with autonomous driving. In this paper, we bridge these two dimensions by exploring how attitudes towards autonomous driving influence behavior in…
Modern cars are evolving in many ways. Technologies such as infotainment systems and companion mobile applications collect a variety of personal data from drivers to enhance the user experience. This paper investigates the extent to which…
Traffic accidents involving elderly drivers are an issue in a super-aging society. A quick and low-cost aptitude test is required to reduce the number of traffic accidents. This study proposed an oddball-serial visual search task that…
Driving is a complex daily activity indicating age and disease related cognitive declines. Therefore, deficits in driving performance compared with ones without mild cognitive impairment (MCI) can reflect changes in cognitive functioning.…
One of the distinct features of this century has been the population of older adults which has been on a constant rise. Elderly people have several needs and requirements due to physical disabilities, cognitive issues, weakened memory and…
One of the major challenges that autonomous cars are facing today is driving in urban environments. To make it a reality, autonomous vehicles require the ability to communicate with other road users and understand their intentions. Such…
Road accidents have become the eight leading cause of death all over the world. Lots of these accidents are due to a driver's inattention or lack of focus, due to fatigue. Various factors cause driver's fatigue. This paper considers all the…
