Augmented reality as an interface for automated driving

A research project, called LRA, is studying augmented reality as an HMI for automated driving. The aim is to clearly describe the situation of driving and to raise the driver awareness, in order to take back control if necessary.

AR display could be used on a Head-Up Display, connected glasses on a large HUD. It's a new way to get interactions with the driver and to manage transitions from automated to manual driving.

This project is led by System X, a technologic research institute in France, with the help of several partners including Renault, Valeo, Oktal and CEA-List.
