Abstract

A large number of researches show that various driver distractions considerably increase the probability of causing an accident. Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) can be used to prevent dangerous driving conditions by monitoring the environment and warn the user in situations like collision, lane departure or speed infractions. In most cases of using the ADAS systems, the driver is warned by visual indicators or audio signals. This paper investigates the design of a device that can be integrated in the driver’s seat which allows the issue of dynamic vibrotactile warnings received from a smartphone based ADAS system.
