Cars are going to drive themselves sooner or later — so what will we do with all that extra commuting time so we're **t stuck twiddling our thumbs?*
That's what Audi is looking to find out with a new study, conducted as part of a collaboration withthe human-machine interaction experts of the Fraunhofer Institute for Industrial Engineering (http://www.iao.fraunhofer.de/lang-en/). It put test subjects in a super futuristic auto**mous car simulation, then assigned them a ****** of attention-demanding tasks while monitoring brain activity with EEG sensors.*
It's called The 25th Hour (https://www.audi-mediacenter.com/en/press-releases/audi-is-researching-the-use-of-time-in-the-robot-car-9120) project—an allusion to the 50 minutes or so the average driver spends behind the wheel, and the "extra" hour they could gain without having to drive. * Read more...
