Abstract

A driving simulator is an operation unit, which allow the user to interact with a computer screen in a way as close to the real world as possible. Different reasons exist for using a driving simulator, some of these are that it is a lot safer than testing in a real world driving situation, it can be easier to collect driving data from each test, it is a cheaper way of testing new in vehicle systems and it gives the option to reconstruct specific driving situations. The purpose of the research is to design and develop rig and driving simulator which fit local anthropometry for further research study driving behavior and comfort. The development of this project is because, the distress on study driving behavior in real driving which is dangerous and unreliable driving simulators on the market which lead the development of driving simulator. The correct identification of a sitting position and position accommodation is one of the key elements for an ergonomically designed driver workspace. The current practice of car manufacturers uses standard practice and design guidelines globally. However, the use of such guidelines developed according to North American people found are not fit the local sample anthropometry and stature. This research aims to tackle this problem by looking at existing standards and proposing a new design parameter that is better suited to local anthropometry. From study found the local sample is shorter as compared to the SAE J833 standard. The local data collection used to develop driving rig simulator to be test on further research study.
