A research prototype driver support system to augment perception to enhance situation awareness and control for car following applications is introduced and results from a field test evaluation are reported. The support system applies driving and braking force control and a gas-pedal push-back force whose magnitudes depend on the degree to which an undesirable region in a perceptual control space of time headway (THW) and time to collision (TTC) is penetrated (i.e. criticality based on perceptually meaningful cues [4]).
