UniNet: A mixed reality driving simulator
Driving simulators play an important role in vehicle research. However, existing virtual reality simulators do not give users a true sense of presence. UniNet is our driving simulator, designed to allow users to interact with and visualize simulated traffic in mixed reality. It is powered by SUMO …

Analysis of Aggressive Driving Using a Driving Simulator
As aggressive driving mainly caused speed-related crashes, aggressive driving must be prevented to improve road safety by identifying aggressive drivers and understand their characteristics and external factors associated with their behaviours. Thus, it is important to investigate relationships …

Modeling Microscopic Driver Behavior under Variable Speed Limits: A Driving Simulator and Integrated MATLAB-VISSIM Study
… understand the microscopic behavior of vehicles driving in VSL zones. Specifically, driver compliance to advisory VSL systems is quantified based on a driving-simulation experiment and introduced into a broader microscopic behavior model. Statistical analysis indicates that VSL compliance can be …

Development and validation of a driver distraction alert system for highway driving using a truck driving simulator
… The proposed system is applied to a truck driving simulator by monitoring the driver response through the steering wheel and accelerator pedal during different driving experiments. In order to ensure an accurate prediction of the driver distraction, the simulation output of the truck …

Using Eye Tracking Technology To Compare Hazard Detection On Road Versus Driving Simulator At Night Across Two Age Groups
… exists that demonstrates the validity of using driving simulation compared to on-road driving, few studies have examined hazard detection between two driving conditions. Even fewer studies have specifically examined hazard detection at night. Results of current research regarding age differences …
