ABSTRACT
Aiming to address future HMI requirements, a new warning concept for Advanccd Driver Assistance Systems focusing on high-priority braking events was evaluated. Therefore, a driving study was conducted testing the potential of two innovative visual warning approaches, a peripheral LED-strip warning and a windshield display warning, in comparison to an auditory alarm. All warnings were presented both unimodal as well as multimodal along with a haptic warning clement. The findings on peripheral visual warnings are encouraging in terms of brake-onset reaction-time, especially in the context of multimodal warning strategies. Further implications will be discussed.
