Abstract

Driver information systems are increasingly installed in any vehicle. Such support systems include in some cases already Head-Up Displays (HUDs), which show the driver information while driving. According to Bubb et al. [Automobilergonomie (ATZ/MTZ-Fachbuch, Aufl. 2015). Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden GmbH, Wiesbaden. 2015], the HUD has the advantage that the required accommodative capacity of the eyes is lower or even eliminated for older persons, since the virtual image is visible about 3–4 m ahead of the vehicle. In addition to conventional HUDs, the research is also engaged in contact analogue Head-Up Displays (cHUDs), where the information is represented locally correct (Israel et al., Kontaktanaloge Anzeigen fur ACC – im Zielkonflikt zwischen Simulation und Ablenkung. 4. Tagung Sicherheit durch Fahrerassistenz, 15.–16. April 2010, Munchen, TUV SUD, 1–7, 2010). However, these concepts cannot be used for all applications. Therefore, a new approach deals with a similar presentation of additional information. In the literature, the concept is called Emissive Projection Display (EPD) and the information is displayed directly on the plane of the windshield and not in a virtual distance. A driving simulator study investigates the differences in the driver’s attention and visual demand.
