Abstract
Risk in traffic or traffic environment is constant, always present and can never be completely eliminated. In urban areas, the highest percentage of risky traffic situations is related to pedestrians and their specificities in traffic participation. Pedestrians as vulnerable road users participate in different functions, i.e. behaviors and modes of movement. Due to the flexibility and the ability to change speeds and movements relatively easily, pedestrians often cause incident and risky traffic situations. The timely detection of pedestrians by motor vehicle drivers is one of the key parameters that directly affects the available response capabilities of motor vehicle drivers to take safety actions in order to avoid pedestrian conflict. This paper presents the basics of the concept and capabilities of new technologies for monitoring and exploring drivers’ views in order to generalize conclusions to improve the effectiveness of drivers’ response in the prevention of traffic risks. Custom hardware and software components will be used to monitor the driver’s view for research and analysis purposes.
