Outline of Final Research Achievements

A Heads-Up Display (HUD) is becoming widespread as a visual information display. How to present HUD images effectively has been investigated. We proposed a monocular HUD presenting an artificial image to either the right or left eye. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of monocularly observing the HUD image on the perceived distance and visibility of the image, task performance, and level of mental workload. Three experiments were conducted, resulting that the monocular presentation was not always superior to the binocular presentation, and its superiority depended on various factors (e.g., the size of the image). The suitability of the presentation method for an automotive HUD display seems to depend on the traffic and driving situation. Therefore, enabling flexible selection of the presentation mode according to the situation is highly desirable.
