Abstract:

This activity evaluates potential automatic-to-manual transition scenarios in terms of relative feasibility, safety, cost, and social implications. The check-out alternatives range from minimal testing of the operator and the vehicle to extensive testing of the operator and vehicle. The vehicle functions analysis presents a summary of functions that are critical to safe manual operation and proposes several options for validation. Two possible check-out processes are discussed, one intended for AHS lanes dedicated to automated traffic, and one intended for mixed mode lanes in which AHS and non-AHS vehicles are traveling. The transition to manual control will involve preparing the driver to resume manual operation prior to release of vehicle functions. Proposed tasks which could be used to determine that the driver is ready to receive control of the automated vehicle are examined.
