| Résumé | Transport Canada, through its ecoTECHNOLOGY for Vehicles program, retained the services of the National Research Council of Canada, as represented by the portfolio for Automotive and Surface Transportation to undertake a test program to examine the operational and human factors considerations concerning the use of a prototype camera-based indirect vision system on a heavy duty vehicle. The primary objective of the camera-based indirect vision system test program was to conduct a preliminary evaluation of the use of cameras in replacement of a mirror-based indirect vision system on a heavy duty vehicle by performing comparative testing in simulated driving scenarios on a closed course test track using commercial drivers as test subjects. A total of four test subjects were asked to perform six tests, although not all of the test subjects completed all of the available tests. |
