Research Abstract

To clarify the cause of older persons' unsafe behaviors while driving a handle type electric wheelchair, we extracted unsafe behaviors of older persons by measuring video image data while driving the electric wheelchair in the real situation and measured driving abilities that is relation with the cause of unsafe behaviors. As a result, we found that non-confirming behavior was the most number of unsafe behaviors while driving and that older persons' divided attention, the useful field of view and the inhibition performance were declined. Therefore, we clarified that their declined performance was influenced the unsafe behaviors such as non-confirming behavior. Then, we proposed the driver assistance system which avoids collisions with the obstacle that approached from the rear side.
