| Research Abstract |
Comparing with the results of the driving tests of actual automobiles, reality of two types of driving simulators, fixed-base and motion-base, are evaluated as a tool to judge driving ability of elderly people.The behaviors of the drivers, when they are imposed on additional auditory calculation task, are observed. It is found the results obtained through experiments using the motion-base driving simulator are significantly closer to the results of the real driving tests than the fixed-base simulator, although there is a common problem that simulator sickness tends to be easily induced in elderly people.
