At the General Session at SWOMA, Chuck Huss shared a study on autonomous cars. The information for the student is below...
This is a study conducted by the VISA (Vision and Accessibility) lab at Wichita State University. We are looking for adults (18+) who are visually impaired to complete a survey regarding their preferences on Autonomous Vehicles.
As a participant in this study, you will complete the survey which covers important preferences on how to operate a self-driving car. For example, how to input and receive information from the car easily. This survey is estimated to take 30 to 40 minutes.
If you are interested, please use the link below to learn more about the study and volunteer to participate: https://bit.ly/3EbnrkD
After completing the survey you will be entered into a raffle for gift card of $25. Winners will be drawn at the end of the data collection period (~Nov 2022).
Questions regarding the study can be directed to Dr. Quan Lei or Robert Beran at Wichita State University:
