Abstract
Research and development of automated driving technology has been actively conducted to solve various social issues. Autonomous driving systems struggle to handle unexpected situations, which is why remote driving is anticipated to serve as a backup in such scenarios. In a remote-controlled vehicle system, the pilot is affected by the lack of physical sensation and delays in the transmission of camera images. Therefore, it is essential to evaluate the driving characteristics and workload of a remote vehicle pilot. Few studies have been conducted on remote-controlled vehicle systems for high-speed. Then, this study aims to clarify the pilot's driving characteristics and subjective evaluation of driving under remote driving in a high-speed environment of 80 km/h by conducting evaluation experiments using a driving simulator.
