Abstract

In this paper, we propose (1) a method for continuously measuring and analyzing cyclists' turning-head behavior (including both safety visual search behavior and look-away behavior) using wearable sensors, (2) an automated method to identify whether the measured turning-head behavior is safety visual search behavior or look-away behavior requiring no prior information, and (3) a method for automatic creation of cyclists' safety behavior map showing traffic spots where many cyclists perform safety visual search behavior. Safety behavior map created from 36 junior high school students' data showed the fact that almost 60% of all subjects never perform visual search behavior even when entering blind intersections including accident prone area.
