Von der hinteren Coverseite

People in highly developed countries are getting older and older. They want to be mobile in old age, but often have problems in road traffic. Even though they often pay a premium for age-appropriate products that increase safety, the demand for driver assistance systems among older drivers has so far been low.

This book summarises the results of the ALFASY (ALtersgerechte FAhrerassistenzSYsteme) project, in which an acoustic driver assistance system is being developed and built to meet the needs of the steadily growing group of older drivers. Technical, psychological and economic aspects were investigated.

The content

Mobility in old age - Panel of the study of older drivers - Overview of driver assistance systems - Driver assistance systems in the context of age-appropriate design - Evaluation of the performance of acoustic assistance systems for older drivers - Driving behaviour of older people in a driving simulator - Implementation of real driving studies, test vehicle and test set-up - Neuropsychological and physiological correlates of the driving behaviour of older drivers - Acceptance and willingness to pay of older drivers.
 

The target groups

• Students, teachers and researchers in economics; in psychology and mechanical engineering,
• Experts/executives in research and development, production and marketing as well as management consultants.

This book is a translation of an original German edition. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation.
