Biography
Bio
Oliver Carsten is Professor of Transport Safety at the Institute for Transport Studies, University of Leeds. His major research focus is on driver interaction and safety with driver assistance and automation systems. He led the UK national project on Intelligent Speed Assistance and has provided advice on safety policy to the UK Department for Transport and to the European Commission. He is heavily involved in international regulatory activities on vehicle automation on the road user side as a member of the Informal Group of Experts on Automated Driving (IGEAD) under UNECE WP.1 and on the vehicle side as a member of a series of informal groups under UNECE WP.29. He is editor-in-chief of the academic journal Cognition, Technology and Work.
Summary
Oliver Carsten will present the challenge for users in presented by the proliferation of automated features already offered by manufacturers which can result in user overtrust, confusion and consequent safety risks. That confusion is compounded by the lack of harmonisation in HMI across vehicle makes and models. He will also discuss whether regulators are likely to require commonality in HMI design and how such commonality could be achieved.
