Preliminary Findings for a Lane-Keeping and Collision-Warning Driver Interface for Snowplow Operations

This paper describes the development process and some preliminary findings for the human-machine interface (HMI) component of a system to aid snowplow operators. The HMI was developed though a series of driver task explorations and prototype tests. The HMI design has resulted in positive driver feedback and quick learning periods.
