Abstract:A standardized method for evaluating rear vision devices was developed and implemented. The method consists of the 1) measurement of device physical characteristics including: field of view, magnification, radius of curvature, accommodation demands and reflectance and 2) measurement of simulated-use performance including distance and lane position and motion judgment. Volume I describes the physical characteristics measurement protocol and results for several devices including plane, convex and non-spherical rear view mirrors. Volume II describes the simulated-use protocol and summarizes preliminary simulated-use performance for those measures. Relations between physical characteristics and user performance measures are discussed.
