    Human Factors Aspects of the Genesis Program
    (1994-03) Wade, Michael G.; Stackhouse, Stirling P.; Burrus, Max
    The success of in-car devices that aid drivers depends in part on driver reaction and acceptance. This project looks at the human factors considerations for the GENESIS Program, which studies the use of personal communication devices to deliver real-time traffic and transit information services. Researchers used vehicle simulation to learn more about the impact of the use of GENESIS devices. The report includes a discussion of human factors issues for consideration during the operational test evaluation phase and recommends suggestions to improve in-car computer screens and for future simulation studies.
