4. NHTSA Automated Driving Definition
NHTSA DEFINES
VEHICLE AUTOMATION
AS HAVING FIVE
LEVELS
LEVEL 0
No automation Driver is in complete and sole control of brakes, steering, throttle, and motive power at all times.
LEVEL 1
Function-specific automation Automation of one or more functions: electronic stability control or pre-charged brakes.
LEVEL 2
Combined function automation Automation of at least two functions, for example adaptive cruise control and lane centering steering.
LEVEL 3
Limited self-driving automation automation that takes over all safety-critical functions under certain traffic conditions. Driver is available for occasional control.
LEVEL 4
Full self-driving automation Vehicle can perform all safety-critical driving functions for an entire trip. Driver is not expected to be available for control at anytime during the trip.

5. HMI – A critical Part of Driving

6. Where are We Today?

7. North America HMI R&D and Activity
Consortium
GOAL: To establish a common methodology to measure driver workload/attention
Attention
Workload
Doug said you need to mention an A to B comparison

8. Have We Gone Too Far?

9. [ ] What is HMI ? In the future: Automated Driving
Tomorrow: Drive in the loop
Today’s Issues: Driver Workload

10. Full Autonomous Vehicle: When and How?
OEM timing for Level 5: Full AV
When:
OEMs have various timing for fully autonomous vehicles
Issues to resolve : Regulations, Infrastructure, Cyber Security
Group 4
No AV Program
Group 1
By 2020
How:
Industry wide collaboration to resolve
Level 3 & 4 needed for transition to Full AV (Driver in the Loop - HMI)
Need holistic approach
Group 2
2020 +
Group 3
No Info

11. HUD Display Information
HUD will assist in Driver Notification/Operation
Head-up Display
To safely provide the right information at the right time and in the right location.
