Abstract

The present chapter discusses the ability of a moving driver simulator to assess the trust of drivers in conditionally automated driving functions. This process includes extracting the right scenarios, the method for creating objective assessment criteria, and the technical solution of a simulator setup. The linking of different sensors and hardware interfaces, as well as time synchronisation, are discussed. Limitations of a driver simulator are analysed. The examined study of 60 participants, including the testing method and its strengths and weaknesses, is described and critically reflected.
