Driving Automation and Autonomy is upon us and the problems that were predicted twenty years ago are appearing. This book investigates the difficult problem of how to interface drivers with automated vehicles by offering an inclusive, human-centered design process that focuses on human variability and capability.

Stanton, Revell, and Langdon have produced the timeliest of all possible texts for our modern age. For here, they and their colleagues explore the modal issue of the times – the ways in which automated vehicles will impact our world. It is a work that should be mandatory for all who aspire to achieve in the world of automated vehicles. If you wish to understand this future, read this book. But more, our whole lives will change as systems automation and technological autonomy begin to hold sway. -Professor Peter Hancock, University of Central Florida, USAResearchers, students and practitioners will value the guidance given by the authors based on empirical evidence. This comprehensive book covers the different aspects of HMI design for automated vehicles in an outstanding way and addresses relevant topics and research paradigms in depth and from different perspectives. The authors give clear and practical guidance on development, evaluation and HMI design. The book gives an important and very sophisticated overview in an area of applied research that is evolving rapidly.-Prof. Dr. Klaus Bengler, Technische Universität München, GERMANYIn this book, Prof Stanton and colleagues show how Human Factors methods can be applied to the tricky problem of interfacing human drivers with vehicle automation. They have developed an approach to designing the human-automation interaction for the handovers between the driver and the vehicle. This approach has been tested in driving simulators and, most interestingly, in real vehicles on British motorways. The approach, called User-Centred Ecological Interface Design, has been validated against driver behaviour and used to support their ongoing work on vehicle automation. I highly recommend this book for anyone interested, or involved, in designing human-automation interaction in vehicles and beyond. -Professor Michael A. Regan, University of NSW Sydney, AUSTRALIA
