Recruiting Participants for Studying Driving Behavior in Mixed-Flow Traffic – A Driving Simulator Study at Georgia Tech

You are warmly invited to participate in a driving simulator-based study aimed at understanding drivers’ longitudinal and lane change behavior in mixed-flow traffic. This study is conducted by the research team of the Autonomous and Connected Transportation Lab (ACT), in Georgia Tech. In this study, participants will use a full cab driving simulator and drive through a virtual road network, while equipped with biosensors monitoring their physiological responses. The study will take approximately 2 hours and 15 minutes to complete. More details about the study can be found in the attached flyer. If you are interested in participating in this study, please scan the QR code on the flyer.
