Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - The Locations of headlamps and driver eye positions in vehicles sold in the USA

Notes: Sumario: Information about the locations of headlamps and driver eye positions is important in estimating the performance of a variety of traffic-safety equipment, such as retroreflective traffic signs and markings, rearview mirrors, and headlamps. Driver eye height is also an important factor in determining safe sight distances on vertical curves. A computer model that predicts the relationship of the driver eye positions. The obtained information includes sales-weighted mean dimensions for the locations of headlamps and driver eye positions, calculated separately for cars and for light trucks and vans Related records: En: Ergonomics. - London [etc.]. - Vol. 40, nº 9 , September 1997 ; p. 872-878Materia / lugar / evento: Ergonomía Seguridad vial Pruebas visuales Vehículos industriales Faros Espejos retrovisores Visibilidad Sistemas informáticos Estados Unidos Otros autores: Sivak, Michael
