A MODEL OF HUMAN BRAKE INITIATION BEHAVIOR WITH IMPLICATIONS FOR ACC DESIGN

This paper studies human behavior in regard to driving and interactions with automation. In the paper, the authors use a satisficing-based multiple mental model perspective to characterize human-generated braking. They suggest that effective human interaction with an adaptive cruise control (ACC) system is achieved when the onset of automated braking matches that of a skilled human operator and when a human driver can easily detect and interpret the operational limits of ACC-generated braking. The authors test their hypothesis through driving simulators and test track studies.
