information produced by the vehicular infotainment systems. The system focused on mobile
phone text messaging and navigation updates.
The derived simulation outputs offered promising results, demonstrating a 45% improvement
in collision avoidance. Additionally, the subjective feedback confirms the users' intention to
adopt this technology, which could be either
embedded on the new vehicles or retrospectively provided as consumer electronics. Our
future work plan involves the continuation of
user-trials in order to increase the user numbers
and provide improved data granularity that
could be extrapolated in the overall drivers'
population.
