Even though the remote driver does execute the dynamic driving task, challenges persist with regard to latency in the data link from AV to remote operator, the lack of sensory modalities, and the sense of being detached from the road environment. (Schippers et al., pre-print).
In addition, the driving experience might differ significantly between manual and remote driving.
Finally (sub-question 5), SAE J3016 defines different implementations of remote operation. The concrete implementation of remote operation is characterized by a wide range of tasks, roles, and requirements towards the operator, the automated vehicle (AV), and the interaction between operator and AV. (SAE J3016, 2021).
Main Question
Have the changes been considered, between in-vehicle manual driving and remote driving?
Sub-Questions
- Has the difference in driving performance been considered between manual and remote driving?
- Has the difference in driving experience been considered between manual and remote driving?
- Has the latency in the data link from AV to remote operator been considered?
- Has the lack of sensory modalities been taken into account?
- Have the differences been considered, between remote management, remote assistance and remote driving?
