The Thinking Wave is an ongoing development of visualization concepts showing the real-time effort and confidence of semi-autonomous vehicle (AV) systems. Offering drivers access to this information can inform their decision making, and enable them to handle the situation accordingly and takeover when necessary. Two different visualizations have been designed, Concept one, Tidal, demonstrates the AV systems effort through intensified activity of a simple graphic which fluctuates in speed and frequency. Concept two, Tandem, displays the effort of the AV system as well as the handling dynamic and shared responsibility between the driver and the vehicle system. Working collaboratively with mobility research teams at the University of Tokyo, we are prototyping and refining the Thinking Wave and its embodiments as we work towards building a testable version integrated into a driving simulator. The development of the thinking wave aims to calibrate trust by increasing the drivers knowledge and understanding of vehicle handling capacity. By enabling transparent communication of the AV systems capacity, we hope to empower AV-skeptic drivers and keep over-trusting drivers on alert in the case of an emergency takeover situation, in order to create a safer autonomous driving experience.

Levels one to three of driving automation systems~(DAS) are spreading fast. However, as the DAS functions become more and more sophisticated, not only the drivers driving skills will reduce, but also the problem of over-trust will become serious. If a driver has over-trust in the DAS, he/she will become not aware of hazards in time. To prevent the drivers over-trust in the DAS, this paper discusses the followings: 1) the definition of over-trust in the DAS, 2) a hypothesis of occurrence condition and occurrence process of over-trust in the DAS, and 3) a driving behavior model based on the trust in the DAS, the risk homeostasis theory, and the over-trust prevention human-machine interface.
As various driving automation system (DAS) are commonly used in the vehicle, the over-trust in the DAS may put the driver in the risk. In order to prevent the over-trust while driving, the trust state of the driver should be recognized. However, description variables of the trust state are not distinct. This paper assumed that the outward expressions of a driver can represent the trust state of him/her-self. The explicit behaviors when driving with DAS is seen as those outward expressions. In the experiment, a driving simulator with a driver monitoring system was used for simulating a vehicle with the adaptive cruise control (ACC) and observing the motion information of the driver. Results show that if the driver completely trusted in the ACC, then 1) the participants were likely to put their feet far away from the pedals; 2) the operational intervention of the driver will delay in dangerous situations. In the future, a machine learning model will be tried to predict the trust state by using the motion information of the driver.
Recent developments in advanced driving assistance systems (ADAS) that rely on some level of autonomy have led the automobile industry and research community to investigate the impact they might have on driving performance. However, most of the research performed so far is based on simulated environments. In this study, we investigated the behavior of drivers in a vehicle with automated driving system (ADS) capabilities in a real-life driving scenario. We analyzed their response to a take over request (TOR) at two different driving speeds while being engaged in non-driving-related tasks (NDRT). Results from the performed experiments showed that driver reaction time to a TOR, gaze behavior and self-reported trust in automation were affected by the type of NDRT being concurrently performed and driver reaction time and gaze behavior additionally depended on the driving or vehicle speed at the time of TOR.
We present RealitySketch, an augmented reality interface for sketching interactive graphics and visualizations. In recent years, an increasing number of AR sketching tools enable users to draw and embed sketches in the real world. However, with the current tools, sketched contents are inherently static, floating in mid air without responding to the real world. This paper introduces a new way to embed dynamic and responsive graphics in the real world. In RealitySketch, the user draws graphical elements on a mobile AR screen and binds them with physical objects in real-time and improvisational ways, so that the sketched elements dynamically move with the corresponding physical motion. The user can also quickly visualize and analyze real-world phenomena through responsive graph plots or interactive visualizations. This paper contributes to a set of interaction techniques that enable capturing, parameterizing, and visualizing real-world motion without pre-defined programs and configurations. Finally, we demonstrate our tool with several application scenarios, including physics education, sports training, and in-situ tangible interfaces.
Lidar has become an essential sensor for autonomous driving as it provides reliable depth estimation. Lidar is also the primary sensor used in building 3D maps which can be used even in the case of low-cost systems which do not use Lidar. Computation on Lidar point clouds is intensive as it requires processing of millions of points per second. Additionally there are many subsequent tasks such as clustering, detection, tracking and classification which makes real-time execution challenging. In this paper, we discuss real-time dynamic object detection algorithms which leverages previously mapped Lidar point clouds to reduce processing. The prior 3D maps provide a static background model and we formulate dynamic object detection as a background subtraction problem. Computation and modeling challenges in the mapping and online execution pipeline are described. We propose a rejection cascade architecture to subtract road regions and other 3D regions separately. We implemented an initial version of our proposed algorithm and evaluated the accuracy on CARLA simulator.
