How HERE is humanizing the automated driving experience
When it comes to
comfort, one size does not fit all. A comfortable ride is a matter of
perception that depends on a number of factors…including how driver speed
changes based on personal preference, road geometry and width, oncoming
traffic, night vs day conditions, weather, social and cultural driving norms
and more. By analyzing long-term location-based driver behaviors and
understanding how humans drive, HERE can help make the automated driving
experience more comfortable. HERE has derived speed profiles from
analysis of probe and map data over long periods of time that can also be
useful in road network design and operation. HERE believes humanizing the
automated driving experience will be essential to ensuring people will feel
comfortable enough to let the car drive itself.
