Project description

This research explores human interactions with autonomous vehicles (AVs) in diverse scenarios using Virtual Reality (VR). Focusing on different road users, including drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians, we intend to employ advanced methods such as eye tracking and electroencephalogram (EEG) technologies to understand humans' cognitive processes during such interactions. The study aims to help AVs safely integrate into complex road environments.
