Human Factor Laboratory
Designing human-centric systems to support safe transportation networks
The study of human factors involves the identification of certain factors in human nature to ensure a system functioning safely and effectively and the use of the research findings in designing systems. Our laboratory focuses on studying the design of human machine interface (HMI), or systems to facilitate communication between humans and systems. Moreover, we are eyeing research related to electric vehicles.
This lab is for this SDG activity:
STUDY FIELDS
- Interdisciplinary sciences
- Human engineering
FOR SOCIETY
We take up social problems and those problems attracting public attention as research themes and produce results that will immediately help society.
RESEARCH THEMES
- Designing HMIs that facilitate the safe and smooth transition of the driving assignment at Level 3 of autonomous driving
- Designing HMIs that facilitate an understanding of the functions of advanced driving assistance systems
- Designing HMIs that have the function of empathy
