Title:

A Precision Teaching-Based System for Enhancing Driver’s Control of Vehicle Lateral Variability

Accession Number:

Abstract:

In this paper an application of precision teaching method for enhancing drivers’ lateral control using driving simulator is proposed. Precision teaching method aims at automatizing the reaction of the learner, that is to get the learner to generate the correct response or pattern of responses to a given stimulation in an automatic manner. Since time, this method is extensively used for enhancing students’ performance. The work aims at demonstrating the effectiveness of precision teaching as a technique to enhance driving and reducing accident risk by means of presenting visual and acoustic feedbacks. Four experiments were developed and lateral position was considered as main dependent variable to measure the effect of the proposed method on driving behavior. The positive effect on lateral control of the proposed method, its dependence on the driving context, and its persistence over time (medium term) are proved.
