TY - JOUR PY - 2017// TI - Relationship between a retinal image in a pedestrian's eye and linear motion of an approaching vehicle JO - Transactions of Society of Automotive Engineers of Japan A1 - Yokoya, Yasushi A1 - Soma, Hitoshi A1 - Shimoyama, Osamu SP - 731 EP - 737 VL - 48 IS - 3 N2 - A relation between velocity of a vehicle and its image on a retina of a pedestrian is described based on geometrical optics. Displacement of a vehicle position is decomposed into the tangential and the normal component according to the two-dimensional rotating-frame. The tangential component directly contributes to the perception by the retinal image, while the normal component indirectly contributes by changes in the visual angle through size constancy. It is shown how the magnitude of these two components depends on eye height of a pedestrian, frontal projected area and velocity of an approaching vehicle.
