Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) has announced its intent to examine new technologies and processes that can improve safety for all drivers through human machine interface (HMI) solutions.
The company has joined a consortium of organisations, including MIT AgeLab, DENSO and Touchstone Evaluations, which will aim to ensure the introduction of more technology into vehicles does not adversely impact an individual's ability to drive safely.
Doug Patton, senior vice president of engineering at DENSO America, said: "We know drivers want to be connected while driving, but how do we safely give drivers what they want? To do this we need to evaluate driver workload."
Dr Wolfgang Epple, director of research and technology at JLR, added HMI has the potential to revolutionise the way motorists interact with the technology within their vehicles and allow people to process more information faster, while at the same time ensuring concentration on the road and overall safety is not adversely affected.
