(In operation since 2011-02)
ITU-T Focus Group on Driver Distraction (FG Distraction) was established by ITU-T TSAG at its meeting in Geneva, 8-11 February 2011.
The revised Terms of Reference (ToR) of the Focus Group, which have been approved by ITU-T management, are available here.
The objective of this focus group is to help optimize driving performance and reduce collisions by producing reports, providing input on ITU-T Recommendations, and corresponding with other Standards Development Organizations (SDOs) and Government/Industry forums.
Tasks considered within the scope of this focus group include:
- Reports
- Generating a report on factors to consider when developing requirements for ICT related applications or systems used by people in an automotive environment
- Generating a report on driver and passenger tasks in the vehicle
- Generating a report on optimal information flow and multi-modal message formats between the driver and automotive cockpit for different use cases
- Generating a report on new ICT related techniques and technologies that can be used to reduce collisions associated with driver distraction
- Requirements input
- Developing design guidance for integrated applications and a remote interface for non-integrated applications running on a connected mobile phone or other remote device
- Proposing methods for assessment of driver workload including its visual, auditory, cognitive, and psychomotor aspects
- Proposing availability, reliability, and transmission performance requirements for automotive services—except for aspects of speech services covered by FG CarCOM
- Proposing mechanisms that can be used to manage information flow and message formats between the driver and automotive cockpit
- Proposing mechanisms for co-ordination of components, subsystems, and applications to minimize cognitive demands
- Proposing visual-manual guidelines
- Corresponding
- Co-ordinating efforts across SDOs, government/industry forums, companies, academic institutions, and subject matter experts
ITU-T SG12 is the parent group of this Focus Group. |
