Monocular blur sometimes impairs locomotion; however, it is not always clear when this will happen. Optic flow (the apparent motion of scene texture elements that occurs during self-motion) provides powerful signals about the direction travel. Here, we test whether monocular heading perception from optic compared to full vision under various levels degradation. Participants ( N = 52, mean age 30 years) completed contrast sensitivity, visual acuity, and tasks with rich or degraded flow,...
Current and foreseeable automated vehicles are not able to respond appropriately in all circumstances require human monitoring. An experimental examination of steering automation failure shows that response latency, variability corrective manoeuvring systematically depend on severity the cognitive load driver. The results formalised into a probabilistic predictive model latencies accounts for severity, within between drivers. predicts high rates unsafe outcomes plausible scenarios. These...
Abstract Automated vehicles (AVs) will change the role of driver, from actively controlling vehicle to primarily monitoring it. Removing driver control loop could fundamentally way that drivers sample visual information scene, and in particular, alter gaze patterns generated when under AV control. To better understand how automation affects this experiment used tightly controlled experimental conditions with a series transitions ‘Manual’ ‘Automated’ trials were produced using either ‘Replay’...
Purpose Many people experience unilateral degraded vision, usually owing to a developmental or age-related disorder. There are unresolved questions regarding the extent which such visual deficits impact on sensorimotor performance; an important issue as limitations can constrain quality of life by restricting ‘activities daily living’. Examination relationship between deficit and performance is essential for determining functional implications ophthalmic conditions. This study attempts...
