A Taxonomy for Secondary In-Vehicle Tasks Based on Eye Glance and Task completion Time

Abstract

The objective of this research was to develop an initial taxonomy that grouped similar secondary in-vehicle tasks based on driving-related performance measures. This type of taxonomy would be useful to system designers when developing in-vehicle tasks and to researchers. Research was conducted using 2 infotainment systems, 17 tasks, and 89 participants to develop and validate an initial taxonomy. The results indicate that the 17 tasks could be parsed into four distinct groups ranging from selecting an AM band to destination entry. The groupings are based on number of glances and task completion time, which provided the best separation between the groups and consistent results for both static and dynamic testing.

Measuring Attention Patterns and Expertise of Scrub Nurses in the Operating Theatre in Relation to Reducing Errors in Surgical Counts

“…Eye tracking is a common technique used in human factors engineering research, for example, to track driver attention. (Lanco, Hankey, Chestnut, 2005;Wittmann et al, 2006) The equipment used is the ASL Mobile Eye Tetherless Eye Tracking System.…”

Cognitive Factors Influencing The Management Of Interruptions During Surgical Counts

“…To capture the surgical counts performed by the nurses, Applied Science Laboratories Mobile Eye Tetherless Eye Tracking System was used. Eye tracking is a common technique used in human factors engineering research, for example, to track driver attention (Lanco, Hankey et al 2005;Whittmann, Kiss et al 2006). Applied Science Laboratories Eyevision software was also used for the transcription of videos.…”
