Immersive driving simulation architecture to support gamified eco-driving instructions
Eco-driving is about energy efficient use of vehicles. There are many approaches to improve
eco-driving. Eco-driving driving style is hard to learn even with the help of driving assistance
systems. This paper presents an immersive driving simulation training tool to support
eco-driving training. We address the following questions: (1) How gamification concepts can
improve eco-driving evaluation, training and adoption in simulated environments and (2)
How to setup such elements in a 3D immersive driving simulator. We present an
implementation of gamification concepts in a driving simulator architecture built upon
pro-SiVIC software and a 3D Helmet Mounted Display. The gamification functions are then
used to motivate drivers to be eco-friendly. We conclude with future work and open issues
