Description
(1st QTR)		 A driving simulator system suitable for human factors research. This includes software for highway-railroad grade crossing scenario development and control. It also includes hardware so images can be displayed and drivers can interact with the system using vehicle controls (i.e., steering wheel and pedals). The Volpe Center can use this technology to support Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) in their mission to reduce accidents at highway-railroad grade crossing. A driving simulator will be used to examine how grade crossing safety systems can be made more effective by addressing driver behavior. For example, how can visual and auditory warnings, such as freight car reflectors and wayside horns, be designed and operated to maximize their ability to attract motorists’ attention and foster safe drivers’ response.
