Ageing drivers: Cognitive ageing and technology

该项目旨在加深我们对老龄化相关的认知变化是否会影响老年驾驶员对新兴车辆自动化和辅助技术的使用的理解。通过分析保险索赔数据库、大型消费者调查和自然驾驶研究，将获得衰老和认知如何与辅助技术相互作用的证据。研究结果将为老年司机、政府政策制定者和行业提供有关老龄化、认知变化和车辆辅助技术使用的信息。这将通过促进最佳驾驶，提高社会参与度和安全性，为老年司机带来好处。

This project aims to enhance our understanding of whether cognitive changes associated with ageing impacts older drivers' use of emerging vehicle automation and assistive technologies. Through analysis of insurance claims databases, a large consumer survey and a naturalistic driving study, evidence will be obtained on how ageing and cognition interact with assistive technology. Findings will inform older drivers, government policy makers and industry on ageing, cognitive changes and the use of assistive technology in vehicles. This will provide benefits for older drivers by promoting optimal driving which will enhance social engagement as well as safety.
