TY - JOUR PY - 2011// TI - Active pedestrian safety by automatic braking and evasive steering JO - IEEE transactions on intelligent transportation systems A1 - Keller, Christoph G. A1 - Dang, Thao A1 - Fritz, Hans A1 - Joos, Armin A1 - Rabe, Clemens A1 - Gavrila, Dariu M. SP - 1292 EP - 1304 VL - 12 IS - 4 N2 - his paper describes two studies in which two night-vision enhancement systems were examined to compare nighttime driver performance in pedestrian detection. In the first study, the levels of clutter in the images displayed by the two types of night-vision enhancement systems were measured objectively and subjectively. The subjective ratings of clutter changed as a power function of the objective measure of clutter intensity. In the second study, the effect of clutter on glance behavior during pedestrian detection was examined in a driving simulator. Night-vision images with less clutter required shorter search times and fewer glances to detect the pedestrian, but the duration of each glance remained relatively constant.
