This volume contains contributions illuminating much of the current
research occurring in the area of visual perception. It encompasses
all aspects of vision and its relationship to vehicle design,
including both the internal and external design of the vehicle as
well as the perceptual and cognitive limitations of the vehicle
controller.
Issues specifically related to the vision of the driver are
initially addressed and the problems of vehicle glazing and light
transmission are considered. The major topics of visual perception
and vehicle control are covered in three related chapters
encompassing: collision avoidance, vehicle signalling systems and
the acquisition of visual information. Moving on to the external
environment and its relationship to vision, traffic signs are
discussed. Approaches to the measurement and modelling of driver
behaviour are dealt with and the area of telerobotic control of
vehicles is considered. In-vehicle displays are covered in two
related chapters addressing issues of visual workload and effects
of display type.
It is hoped that the book, contributed to by experts from a
diverse range of disciplines, including optometrists,
psychologists, physiologists, human factors specialists and
engineers, will stimulate the progression of research in this area,
as effectively as the preceding volumes did.
