To help automated vehicles learn surrounding environments via V2X communications, it is important to detect and transfer pedestrian situation awareness to the related vehicles. Based on the characteristics of pedestrians, a real-time algorithm was developed to detect pedestrian situation awareness. In the study, the heart rate variability (HRV) and phone position were used to understand the mental state and distractions of pedestrians. The HRV analysis was used to detect the fatigue and alert state of the pedestrian, and the phone position was used to define the phone distractions of the pedestrian. A Support Vector Machine algorithm was used to classify the pedestrian’s mental state. The results indicated a good performance with 86% prediction accuracy. The developed algorithm shows high applicability to detect the pedestrian’s situation awareness in real-time, which would further extend our understanding on V2X employment and automated vehicle design.

The advent of automated driving is a global trend. It is likely that views on what will make an automated vehicle trustworthy, comfortable, usable, and enhance passengers’ well-being while driving will differ between markets. Therefore, we conducted an expert survey ( n = 28) to identify cultural-specific design requirements of Level 4 automated vehicles for China, Germany, and the United States. Our results indicate a tendency toward hedonic vehicle design in China and pragmatic design in Germany. United States lies between these two markets. The results imply that car manufacturers can influence passengers’ well-being through vehicle design and, in turn, increase acceptance of automated vehicles.
