Situation awareness during the live operation of remote vehicles

该项目旨在与远程控制真实车辆的参与者一起实时调查态势感知（SA）（与当前大部分工作使用的模拟方法相反）。此外，由于远程操作很可能成为一项技术活动，操作员需要经过培训和高度实践，因此迫切需要了解远程SA可能随着专业知识的增加而变化的方式。该项目也将寻求解决这一问题。这些问题与对SA的心理学理解有关，与检查远程情境心理模型发展和更新的过程有关，与澄清支持这些过程所必需和所需的信息类型有关。该研究还将具有明确的实际工程应用，为远程控制操作界面的设计提供信息，这对于成功将自动驾驶汽车引入我们的道路至关重要。

The project aims to investigate situation awareness (SA) in real-time with participants who are remotely controlling real vehicles (in contrast to the simulation approaches used by much of the current work). In addition, because remote operation is likely to become a skilled activity in which operators are trained and become highly practiced, there is a pressing need to understand the ways in which remote SA might change with increasing expertise. The project will also seek to address this issue. These questions have relevance for the psychological understanding of SA, in examining the processes whereby mental models of remote situations are developed and updated, and in clarifying the types of information that are both necessary for and desirable in supporting these processes. The research will also have clear real-world engineering applications, in informing the design of the interfaces for remote control operations that will be crucial to the successful introduction of autonomous vehicles to our roads.
