Employees of Michigan University concluded that the spread of cars with the autopilot functions will contribute to more frequent motion sickness of passengers. It is known that the driver of a vehicle rarely susceptible to motion sickness, whereas when the passenger in place in similar conditions it can feel all characteristic symptoms. The fact that the driver in certain extent predict the behavior of the vehicle and its reaction to a vestibular system, such as the passenger in some cases possible deprived.
American scientists concern the fact that much of the 3200 participants of the survey conducted are ready to engage in a stand-alone drive a car to activities that can provoke motion sickness. Almost a third of Americans polled ready to play on mobile devices to watch video on them, write or read.
How to deal with it? Firstly, we should not move in cars with head down or sit upstream movement. It is better to watch the road and surrounding objects, talk with fellow travelers or by phone, or sleeping. Secondly, vehicle manufacturers with the autopilot should think about creating a better view, and displays for the entertainment of passengers make translucent and place them before the eyes of sitting.
