Evaluation of Feelings of Excitement Caused by Auditory Stimulus in Driving Simulator Using Biosignals

In recent years, Japanese young people are exhibiting less interest in driving. Since we believe that their interest can be increased by in-vehicle systems, in this study, we prepared a driving course that features exciting scenes and measured the biological signals of participants while they drove a driving simulator. We focused on the excitement of driving scenes in experiments using a DS and evaluated the feelings of excitement by EEGs and ECGs. We concluded that SDNN and RRV indexes identify feelings of excitement. In this report, we describe a new experiment and analyze its results, which show the same tendency about feeling excitement between questionnaires and biosignals such as EEGs and ECGs.
