Abstract

Arrangement of steering wheel switches is vital for safe and easy maneuverability of the vehicle. In our previous study, following result was presented, 6 swithces arranged on the middle or upper area of steering wheel can be handled more easily than those on the lower area as used before on the market. In this study, considering that the number of steering wheel switches is expected to be increased, maneuverability of 8 switches arranged on the upper and left area of the steering wheel was studied. Maneuverability of 4 kinds of switches were studied using our driving simulator, 8 switches on the left upper side were found to be the best, as the eye travel from the forward scene to the target is shorter.
