Abstract:
One major issue with driving simulators is their ecological validity, which corresponds to the evaluation of their capacity at enabling drivers to behave as if the simulator was a real car and the virtual environment a real environment. This is a difficult question that involves many aspects such as the physical fidelity of the simulator, the driving scenario and human factors. In this paper, we focus on the "behavioral" validity of driving simulators. In that respect, the concept of presence appears to be an interesting way to look at this problem, since presence is commonly described as a psychological state in which the participant behaves as if he/she would in the real world. Experimental approaches have shown that sensorial factors, such as the degree of environmental rendering realism and more generally visual factors can affect presence. Here, we evaluated subjective ratings of presence, physiological activity and driving behavior as a function of environment realism.
