| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Optical illusions during car driving may induce the misjudgment of drivers and serious traffic accidents. For example, a driver may misjudge the positional relation between preceding vehicles at night: the tail lamp illusion based on misreading a depth. Misrecognition of a slope gradient has a possibility to cause automobile crashes because of deceleration delay: the optical illusion of a vertical gradient. Such optical illusions result from the cognitive process based on our experience and knowledge. The purpose of this research was to clarify behavioral and brain activities in optical illusions associated with serious traffic accidents. Moreover, the driver assistance systems with the automatic detection of optical illusions were developed, considering human cognitive functions.
