<strong>AIDE</strong> D4.1.6 Final Activity Report PU Contract N. IST-1-507674-IP<br />

With reference to the theoretical model, DVE represents a framework for all the most significant<br />

studies to describe a unique driver’s behaviour model and a tool to predict driving behaviour<br />

influenced by IVIS and ADAS active on board, so reaching the scientific objectives of the project.<br />

Concerning the DVE simulation, SSDrive could be considered as a flexible tool, allowing<br />

researchers to reproduce different vehicle, environment and driver’s status conditions. Some of<br />

them are already available for simulation, while more specific ones can be shaped to user needs.<br />

SSDrive and its future developments have the potential of helping OEMs in predicting - at an early<br />

stage design - which effects the use of an information/driving assistance system active on board will<br />

have on the driver’s performance.<br />

8.1.4 Recommendations on future work<br />

The developed computational simulation of DVE (SSDrive) will allow Automotive manufactures<br />

and suppliers to analyze drivers’ and vehicles’ behaviour in different driving environments,<br />

observing how the presence of one or more IVIS (here configured as a distraction source) can have<br />

an impact on the driving task, especially in some particularly critical scenarios.<br />

SSDrive can also be a test-bed for developing innovative functions which allow an adequate tuning<br />

of all the ADAS systems active on the vehicle, adapting them to driving.<br />

Moreover the results on Long-Term and Short Term behavioural effects suggested to optimize the<br />

development of the next version of advanced driver assistance systems (e.g. speed limiter and cruise<br />

control) and to improve learning and use of these devices.<br />

Future work may involve the tuning and validation of other meaningful parameters characterising<br />

driver’s behaviour. All these parameters could readily be integrated in the existing SSDrive<br />

implementation. Based on this, for instance, a link between the DEP parameter (which is related to<br />

driver’s error making) and the DIS parameter, related to explore and predict the driver’s intention<br />

(manoeuvre), could be established and promoted for further researchers’ initiatives.<br />

SP1’s achievements and ongoing improvements of the SSDrive-Driver, Vehicle and Environment<br />

model provide an important starting point to have a future total control and integration of devices<br />

and systems active on board vehicle, contributing to making driving a more comfortable and safe<br />

experience.<br />
