提升 L2 自动驾驶系统的驾驶员参与度：完全共享纵向控制的影响

According to the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), in Level 2 systems (L2 systems), the system executes the longitudinal and lateral control of the vehicle, with the driver required to monitor the environment and intervene when necessary. To further improve safety and driver engagement, we compared a fully shared longitudinal control system, which permits speed adjustments via acceleration and braking without deactivation, with a conventional system that disengages upon braking. In a simulator study involving 61 participants, both systems were well-received in terms of acceptance and user experience. The fully shared longitudinal control led to more frequent and earlier braking, suggesting anticipatory driving, without compromising perceived safety. Furthermore, it outperformed in hedonic qualities of user experience, and elicited a stronger intention to use. Our findings indicate that fully shared longitudinal control can enhance driver engagement, offering a valuable improvement for L2 automated systems.
