UX work underway to make alphabet soup, control icons easier on drivers
At the InCabin USA vehicle technology
expo in Detroit, Ford customer research
lead Susan Shaw said that the sea of
letters around ADAS features and control
and indicator icons that vary between
vehicles are often confusing to
drivers. Shaw pointed out that the following
all represent features related to
driving lanes: LDW, LKA, LKS, LFA, LCA.
These initialisms (groups of letters that
form words) are not the only ways the
industry refers to these technologies, as
some OEMs have their own names for
similar things. It all contributes to what
can be dangerous assumptions on the
part of a driver. " It's shocking how
many people think their vehicle will apply
the brakes in an emergency, when
the car has no such system, " she said.
As an overview to the subject of control
and indicator iconography, Shaw

(SfM) capabilities to work and are often
inaccurate, he said.
The other main option for future park
assist systems is lidar, which does well
with distance but is " problematic in
terms of bill of materials and costs, "
Jiang said. Radar is useful for distance
measurements as well, but since park
assist needs to be able to see lines
painted on the ground, it has limits and
would require vision cameras to be part
of the package.

When looked at in an overview, the number of initialisms used for various ADAS systems could
easily overwhelm some drivers.
