Abstract

The head-up-display (HUD), which reflects driving information into the windshield has the goal to lower driving effort from the information uptake and thereby, increase our safety by reducing risks associated to e.g., fatigue and stress. This motivated us to test the HUD in combination with the lane keeping assistant system (LKAS) from n = 48 subjects who drove in real traffic conditions two premium vehicles in a highway in Germany. Subjects then rated the Human-Machine Interaction (HMI) from an assessment about the perceived feelings of safety, degree of relief, information displayed, displays design, and monitoring procedures. Results from CMP regressions show that the HUD has a significant effect on the driving effort and safety feelings, and on the overall subjects’ driving experience. Moreover, we find that this effect is stronger among elderly drivers, students, and females who feel significantly less driving effort. In particular, women felt significantly safer while the HUD was activated.
