Abstract :
The RealSim´s open architecture is modular and flexible for adapting to present and future human factors research experimental requirements. Using this architecture as a research tool, future designers can evaluate optimum methods of presenting new information to the drivers of tomorrow´s vehicles. New research data is being collected and analyzed by FHWA which will aid in understanding the requirements, specifications, and designs for safe human interaction with future vehicles and highways
