ADAPTATION - Drivers' adaptation processes in response to ADAS use

Period

1 January 2010–1 December 2013

Project manager

Trent Victor

ADAS have emerged as an integral part of modern road vehicles. They make use of the newest information technologies in order to enhance driver safety and comfort, and thereby avoiding driver errors and accidents. Today several systems and functions, available on the market, have the potential to meet these objectives. However, concerns have been raised that drivers adapt to these new systems in unexpected ways that can compromise safety. The objective of ADAPTATION is to improve the career perspectives of young researchers by taking part in an innovative and ambitious European research programme. ADAPTATION aims at studying the whole range of adaptation processes in response to ADAS including not only observable behavioural changes, but also changes in regulatory, cognitive and motivational processes.
