Theory: Anticipatory driving helps the driver to decelerate earlier

Anticipatory driving with the help of an
ecoHMI in the Head-Up-Display
Theory: Anticipatory driving helps the driver to decelerate earlier
→ Implementation of an anticipatory advanced driver assistance system using cooperative systems in the Head-Up-Display
Method:
• Head-Up-display developed in collaboration with BMW and TUM
• 24 subjects in the static driving simulator at the Institute of Ergonomics at the TU München
• Test route included different rural and urban road situations with
different traffic lights, traffic signs and other deceleration scenarios
Static driving simulator
HUD in driving simulator
Results
Earlier reaction in deceleration situations
with HUD (treatment):
• Longer coasting times
• Lesser use of brakes
• High user acceptance rate
• 10% fuel consumption reduction for
whole route
• Between 35% and 15%reduction in
deceleration situations
• About 6% time increase
