Improve Information Flow While On the Road

As ADAS and Navigation technologies evolve more and more and become standard features in new car models, one need is being addressed but creates another issue. Drivers must look at multiple screens (HUD, IVI, smartphone, etc.) to obtain traffic information and navigation guidance making the driver disconnected from the physical world in front of them.

Assimilating discontinuous display information requires a high cognitive effort that may contribute to a driver’s confusion and distraction, impacting the safety of all vehicle passengers and other vehicles and pedestrians on the road.
