A real-time lane changing and line changing algorithm for driving simulators based on virtual driver behavior

In this article an algorithm is developed for lane/line changing for use in driving simulators. The decision making and maneuvering processes of a virtual vehicle driver are modeled including gap acceptance, a path-following algorithm, and a collision-avoiding algorithm. Lane change scenarios were tested using a bus driving simulator to compare the behavior of the virtual drivers with ten real-world drivers. It was found that the trajectory conformity of the virtual vehicles to the test drivers was higher than 0.84.
