Vehicle Driving

    Project Details

    Description

    Investigating all aspects of driving, including:

    - driving and sharing driving between a vehicle driver and a sensor system,
    - non-model-based control of a wheeled vehicle,
    - modelling of a vehicle and a vehicle pulling one or more trailers,
    - learning to drive,
    - assistance and support with learning to drive,
    - the effect of tiredness and time spent driving,
    - driving mobile robots,
    - and the ability to drive in different situations.

    Key findings

    Sharing driving between a vehicle driver and a sensor system using trust-factors to set control gains

    Non-model-based control of a wheeled vehicle pulling two trailers to provide early powered mobility and driving experiences

    - Driving and driver learning is different when provided with different levels of sensor support.
    - Learning should be adjusted when providing different levels of sensor support
    Rule-based system to assist a tele-operator with driving a mobile robot.
    - Use of "self-reliance factors" can help, especially in deciding how to share control between humans and sensors
    - Varying the level of sensor support varies ability to drive.
    - Driving can be shared between a vehicle driver and a sensor system using trust-factors to set control gains.
