Abstract

In recent years, Japanese young people are exhibiting less interest in driving. Since we believe that their interest can be increased by in-vehicle systems, in this study, we prepared a driving course that features exciting scenes and measured the biological signals of participants while they drove a driving simulator. We focused on the excitement of driving scenes in experiments using a DS and evaluated the feelings of excitement by EEGs and ECGs. We concluded that SDNN and RRV indexes identify feelings of excitement. In this report, we describe a new experiment and analyze its results, which show the same tendency about feeling excitement between questionnaires and biosignals such as EEGs and ECGs.
