Trusting Other Vehicles' Automatic Emergency Braking Decreases Self-Protective Driving.

Objective: We focused on drivers in close proximity to vehicles with advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS). We examined whether the belief that an approaching vehicle is equipped with automatic emergency braking (AEB) influences behavior of those drivers.

Background: In addition to benefits of ADAS, previous studies have demonstrated negative behavioral adaptation, that is, behavioral changes after introduction of ADAS, by its users.

Monocular Presentation Attenuates Change Blindness During the Use of Augmented Reality.

Augmented reality (AR) is an emerging technology in which information is superimposed onto the real world directly in front of observers. AR images may behave as distractors because they are inside the observer's field of view and may cause observers to overlook important information in the real world. This kind of overlooking of events or objects is known as "change blindness.
