Abstract
Despite spectacular advancements in automotive industry, a significant gap exists within the domain of driver-vehicle interaction like the fixed response force of the accelerator and brake pedals. Nowadays, although there are studies on safety especially for pedals, the issue of customizing the pedal hardness has not become widespread. In this study, a method for customizing the accelerator and brake pedals is suggested. The proposed system improves driving comfort and experience by allowing drivers to customize their preferred pedal level. Utilizing an accessible tuner for stepwise adjustments, drivers can fine-tune the pedal response force until it matches their comfort and driving style. Moreover, our system includes numbered preset buttons, which enable drivers to save their preferred force profiles. This feature not only accommodates the unique preferences of individual drivers but also eases transitions between different drivers sharing the same vehicle. By just a push of a button, drivers can recall their saved profiles, ensuring consistent comfort and control across different driving sessions. By incorporating this system to the car, we aim to revolutionize driver-vehicle interactions, moving away from the traditional standardized approach towards a personalized driving experience. This novel solution holds promise in expanding driving comfort, improving vehicle control, and potentially enhancing driving safety. Furthermore, it creates new avenues for research into the effects of tailored pedal forces on driving efficiency and fatigue, thus shaping the future trajectory of automotive design.
