HUMAN WORKLOAD MODELING FOR AUTONOMOUS GROUND VEHICLES

by Vlad L. Pop; W. Stuart Michelson

Abstract

Accurate models of operator workload in highly automated ground vehicles could inform interface design decisions, predict performance impacts of new systems, and evaluate existing systems. This paper summarizes an existing methodology for modeling human operator workload, demonstrates its application to automated ground vehicles, and discusses its value in development, certification, and acquisition of autonomous military ground systems.
