Abstract

This paper describes a haptic velocity guidance system with the purpose of realizing better fuel efficiency and enhancing road capacity by using information from Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS). By controlling the accelerator pedal reaction force, the proposed system provides a desired pedal stroke and guides the driver to achieve a desired velocity in real time. The effectiveness of the proposed haptic velocity guidance method is verified by experiments using Driving Simulator (DS). The comparison with the other guidance HMI is presented via experimental results. The experimental results show that the proposed haptic guidance, which provides high accuracy and quick response in velocity tracking, is a promising velocity guidance HMI.
