VIVID This project is in progress
Virtual Vehicle Information Displays  


Context

The amount of on-board information that is available to drivers is dramatically increasing. There is a danger that drivers who should be devoting more attention to the driving task will be bombarded by large volumes of unprioritised information.

Aims

Create a system that will allow the realistic design, testing and evaluation of both the form and function of multiple automotive information systems for both commercial and private vehicles.

Method

Develop a specification of the required system from background information from the research partners and the current state of the art.
Produce software modules and hardware, integrate and validate by the industrial partners


Benefits

Increased competitiveness of the UK automotive industry through a reduced time to market for new display products and greater conformity between product requirements and performance
