Abstract

This study aims to investigate the behavior of elderly drivers when using a voice-operated device in a car. In this study, five types of verbal tasks, simulating the voice-operated device, were loaded while 24 subjects (12 elderly, 12 young) were running on a curved road. Their steady-state visually evoked potentials (SSVEP) were measured to objectively evaluate the task levels in the laboratory. Differences in driving behavior and SSVEP power spectrum density between the elderly and young drivers were demonstrated.
