Study on the Influence of Driving Simulator S3D Visual Display on Distance Judgment Accuracy and User Experience in Following Task

Abstract

In order to study the influence of S3D visual display in driving simulator on the accuracy of distance judgment and the user experience under the vehicle following task, in this paper, ten people were called to carry out the following experiment based on the real vehicle test, and then the reference following distance can be collected. The driving simulator experiment was carried out by adopting the 2×4 within-subjects design experiment, and the difference ΔD between the following distance of the driving simulator and the real vehicle was taken as the analysis index to characterize the following simulation fidelity in the simulator. The results show that there is a significant difference in the following distance between S3D and 2D display modes. Among them, the following distance of S3D mode is closer to the actual following distance, which has an accuracy advantage of 2.5 m (95% CI: 1.11-3.85 m) compared with 2D mode. Generally speaking, S3D plays a positive role in improving distance perception and judgment in driving simulator, and the results have not witnessed any discomfort feeling caused by S3D.
