| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed a driving simulator to evaluate driver hazard perception. In a driver simulator test using this simulator, the participant is asked to simulate driving in response to the movement of the image scenarios, while we evaluated palmar sweating response (PSR); skin potential reflex (SPR); and steering wheel, accelerator, and brake response for each participant.
Two of the participants for who decreased cognitive function was suspected, response characteristics were considered. SPR and PSR tended to be late for the former, where the brake response did not match the dangerous scenes displayed, suggesting the possibility that hazard was not able to be accurately recognized. For the latter, no SPR or PSR was observed in the final stage of the driving simulation, and the participant may have entirely missed seeing the danger in some scenes. This driving simulation test is an effective means for screening the driving skills of elderly drivers.
