The
Internal distractions can generally be defined as the decoupling of attention from an individual's perception of the outside world coincident with his or her shift in focus to internal thought processes. Some mind wandering can be consciously directed while some is unintentional. Mind wandering can involve any topic and can last mere seconds or be protracted over many minutes. Regardless of content, length, or intensity, whenever perception and attention is decoupled the risk of looking but not seeing increases.
The primary objective of this procurement is to review the current literature and algorithms associated with mind wandering detection and determine the plausibility of using different methods, or combinations of methods to assess the incidence and impact of mind wandering on traffic safety.
NHTSA seeks a Contractor to develop a methodology, informed by the literature/algorithm review, to detect the overall incidence of mind wandering in a driving simulator or equipped car. The Contractor will demonstrate and report on their methodologies effectiveness through the use of a pilot study, or with previously acquired simulator/sensor equipped car data.
