Analysis of Interrelationship between Traffic Conditions and Driver’s Stress for Introduction of Effective ITS Measures
Rear-end collisions occur most frequently among various kinds of accidents on the Metropolitan Expressway. In order to reduce the number of those accidents, the authors conducted experiments to see if there is a correlation between changes in the driver’s mental workloads and road structures, traffic conditions, the implemented facilities, and other circumstances. The authors used eye cameras, biosensors, and other devices for these experiments. Furthermore, the authors researched it by using new technologies such as intelligent transportation system (ITS).
