Abstract:An important human factors challenge for autonomous vehicles (AVs) will be to find appropriate and acceptable methods for autonomous vehicles to express failure states to other drivers, bicyclists, and pedestrians. This project focused on the pedestrian-AV interaction challenge and explored forms of communication that are generalizable across autonomy type and brand. This document describes a field study and a display study. In the field study, the authors conducted interviews with pedestrians in nine settings around Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania where autonomous Uber vehicles were routinely being tested at the time.
