Abstract

A method of monitoring perception of semantically binary relevant information by a driver in highly automated vehicles is presented for the first time, taking into account information flows circulating in the vehicle’s on-board systems, the driver’s reactions to semantically binary relevant information, the dynamics of the driver’s professionally important qualities in a solution to transferring control to the driver in highly automated vehicles when the onboard systems of the vehicle can not support further “without pilot” control mode, i. e. they do not correspond to the operational design domain. The current main problems of the safety of the operation of highly automated and unmanned vehicles are considered. The structure of the upper level system is developed for the transfer of control to the driver in highly automated vehicles. A classification of semantically binary relevant information is presented, and significant factors influencing perception are identified.

Keywords

perception of semantically binary relevant information, emergency preparedness, operational design domain, communication platform, cloud storage technologies, data conversion and processing, transfer of control to driver in highly automated vehicles, professionally important qualities, situation awareness, human factor
