Alarm effectiveness in driver-centred collision-warning systems / R. Parasuraman, P.A. Hancock and O. Olofinboba

The potential use of systems that seek to communicate a warning of impending collision directly to the driver is examined. As a result, only a small proportion of alarms will represent true collision scenarios. These and other factors can conspire to reduce alarm effectiveness in collision-warning systems. The problem is illustrated analytically and potential solutions are advanced
