TECHNICAL NOTE: AN EYE-MARK CAMERA FOR USE IN DRIVER BEHAVIOR STUDIES

INFORMATION ON DRIVER PERCEPTUAL BEHAVIOR WOULD BE VALUABLE IN EVALUATING DRIVER PERFORMANCE IN RELATION TO ROAD FEATURES; ASSESSING SIGNALLING DEVICE EFFECTIVENESS IS AN EXAMPLE. AN APPARATUS TO MEASURE EYE MOVEMENT, CONSISTING OF A SPOT OF LIGHT DERIVED BY REFLECTION FROM THE CORNEA AND SUPERIMPOSED ON A FILM OF THE SCENCE AS IT PASSES IN FRONT OF THE DRIVER, WAS ADAPTED FOR USE IN MOVING VEHICLES. THE TECHNIQUE WAS SHOWN TO BE SUFFICIENTLY ACCURATE TO DETERMINE WHAT THE DRIVER IS LOOKING AT IN MOST DRIVING SITUATIONS.
