Eye tracking technology can help professionals in the automotive industry design better <\/span>driving simulators and training programs<\/span><\/a>. By generating and analyzing driver attention metrics, driver\u2019s simulator manufacturers and trainers alike can ensure a safer experience behind the wheel and on the road.<\/span><\/p>\n

Even more, a <\/span>\u062a\u062a\u0628\u0639 \u0627\u0644\u0639\u064a\u0646 \u062b\u0644\u0627\u062b\u064a \u0627\u0644\u0623\u0628\u0639\u0627\u062f<\/span><\/a> driving simulator setup, in particular, provides unprecedented insights into visual attention, situational awareness, and habitual driver behavior.<\/span><\/p>\n

We\u2019ll break down current industry challenges and the solutions 3D eye tracking brings to the table below.<\/span><\/p>\n

Problem: Driver Training Programs Challenges<\/b><\/h2>\n

The <\/span>global driving simulator market<\/span><\/a> is projected to experience remarkable growth within the next five years. As of late, some countries have even made <\/span>simulator training compulsory<\/span><\/a> for all future drivers.<\/span><\/p>\n

Still, in spite of the continuous development of the driving simulator industry, manufacturing companies and driver instructors face a series of challenges and limitations in training programs.<\/span><\/p>\n

Driver Attention Guesswork<\/b><\/h3>\n

From a psychological point of view, a standard low level simulator does not have the capacity to reveal and measure a trainee\u2019s attention and cognitive load.<\/span><\/p>\n

To put it simply, as a trainer, you can evaluate the <\/span>what <\/span><\/i>\u2013 learner\u2019s actions \u2013 but not the <\/span>how <\/span><\/i>\u0623\u0648 <\/span>why<\/span><\/i> \u2013 attention, perception, intention. This applies to both regular driving habits and instinctive actions in emergency situations. You can only guess, probe, and assume the reasons.<\/span><\/p>\n

Unearthing the root cause of a trainee\u2019s behavior is critical for monitoring, identifying, and correcting potentially dangerous habits.<\/span><\/p>\n

Trainee-trainer Communication Gaps<\/b><\/h3>\n

The average driver\u2019s simulator environment requires the trainer to be positioned behind the trainee. In terms of communication, this creates a two-way block:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Inadequate assessment<\/b> \u2013 not being able to see where the learner is looking and if he or she is going through the proper visual sequences.<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Environmental distraction<\/b> \u2013 if the trainee knows that the supervisor is behind them, he or she will be unconsciously pressured to act and react in an unnatural manner.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    However, by using a 3D eye tracking software solution like <\/span>GazeSense<\/span><\/a>, the trainer won\u2019t even have to be in the same room as the learner during practice sessions. Our software facilitates the remote and non-intrusive monitoring of eye movements and visual attention in real time.<\/span><\/p>\n
