The BAT Lab graduate student, Kimberly D. Martinez, presented a study on meaningful tactile signals to assist takeover in automated driving at this year's Automotive User Interface conference in South Korea, Seoul. AutoUI 2025

Our latest publication on creating meaningful vibrotactile patterns to represent automated vehicle takeover requests is now published in IEEE Transactions on Human-Machine Systems! ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/99065…

#HFES2022 in Atlanta was a success! NHanCE Lab members, Nade Liang, Maya Luster, and (Dr.) Shree Frazier, presented work on automated vehicles, driver behaviors, and tech usage among older adults. Also, Nade and Maya received the Student Member with Honors award! Thanks HF/E Society!

Our lab's latest publication is now available online in Accident Analysis & Prevention! It discourages the myopic view of older adults as a homogenous group, especially regarding how they (might) perceive autonomous vehicles. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Curious about #AccessibleTransportation #AutonomousVehicles solutions? Register for the Challenge.gov event “Driving #InclusiveMobility for All” on 11/17. Hear from U.S. Department of Transportation Volpe USDOT Inclusive Design Challenge team & winner, IE's Brad Duerstock. Details: bit.ly/3sTsVKb

This is a prototype for a fully autonomous vehicle that is handicap accessible. Purdue University won a national competition by designing it. Watch Wish Tv at 5 to see what makes this unique and when you could see it on the roads.

Thanks Wish Tv for highlighting this critical work! Prof. Brad Duerstock and I are excited to contribute solutions to enable a more accessible autonomous transportation future for many who currently face significant travel barriers.

Thank you Purdue University for spotlighting this critical work! Prof. Brad Duerstock and I are thrilled to be part of the national conversation on making future autonomous vehicles accessible to people with disabilities.

IE's Brad Duerstock and Brandon Pitts took on the DOT Inclusive Design Challenge. With the help of industry collaborators like BraunAbility the team won the top prize! Learn more about this fantastic project here: bit.ly/easi-rider-new…

Meet Regen Li! Our latest student spotlight features Regen Li, an IE senior exploring human-centered projects. Regen is currently working on a project involving older adults and their interactions with video conferencing platforms. Keep up the great work! bit.ly/ss-fall-2022

How do you account for user diversity when designing automonous vehicles? Learn all about it this Friday, when we welcome Brandon J Pitts, PhD from @PurdueIndEng . #AVs UW-Madison College of Engineering U-M Industrial and Operations Engineering LSU engineering.wisc.edu/event/an-auton…

Our latest collaborative publication (with Ford Motor Company) on predicting drivers’ situation awareness (SA) in autonomous vehicles using integrated eye tracking and EEG data is now available in IEEE Transactions on Human-Machine Systems!
