| tasks: (a) detection, (b) recognition, (c) situation analysis, (d) decision making, and (e) control response. An analytical process to determine the responsibilities of the human driver, vehicle, and AHS infrastructure for these driving tasks is presented. The Automated Highway System (AHS) blends engineering ingenuity and technology to produce a new level of transportation services. The National Automated Highway System Consortium (NAHSC) is in the process of evaluating system attributes for AHS development. These attributes include a mixture of automated and manual traffic on automated lanes; levels of automation; levels of responsibility and control at the driver, vehicle, and infrastructure; communication protocols; and human involvement in the driving task. One of the most important attributes that needs to be studied is the integration of automated systems with human operators. Human driver | |||||||||||||
