This SAE Recommended Practice establishes boundaries for shade bands on glazed surfaces in class "A" vehicles. These boundaries are located so that the shade band can provide occupant comfort and driver vision protection from glare, with respect to solar radiation, under some lighting and driving conditions. Since shade bands transmit less visible light than adjacent glazed surfaces, the shade band boundaries establish boundaries for the driver's field of view.

The SAE Recommended Practice is intended for use in measuring the radius of curvature (ROC) of spherical convex mirrors.

This SAE Recommended Practice establishes the location of drivers’ eyes inside a vehicle. Elliptical (eyellipse) models in three dimensions are used to represent tangent cutoff percentiles of driver eye locations. Procedures are provided to construct 95th and 99th percentile tangent cutoff eyellipses for a 50/50 gender mix, adult user population. Neck pivot (P) points are defined in Section 6 to establish specific left and right eye points for direct and indirect viewing tasks described in SAE J1050. These P points are defined only for the adjustable seat eyellipses defined in Section 4. This document applies to Class A Vehicles (Passenger Cars, Multipurpose Passenger Vehicles, and Light Trucks) as defined in SAE J1100. It also applies to Class B vehicles (Heavy Trucks), although these eyellipses have not been updated from previous versions of SAE J941. The appendices are provided for information only and are not a requirement of this document.

This SAE Recommended Practice is intended for use in measuring the radius of curvature of a convex mirror.

This SAE Recommended Practice establishes two dimensional Eyellipses representative of 90th, 95th and 99th percentile distributions of driver eye locations for use in passenger cars, trucks, buses and multipurpose passenger vehicles. New information obtained from the SAE Truck Driver Anthropometric and Workspace Study has resulted in development of new eye location procedures for trucks and other vehicles with high H-point heights and large steering wheel diameters. Therefore, this practice has been separated into two parts. Part I describes the eye location procedure for vehicles with H-point heights (H30) and steering wheel diameters (W9) less than 405mm and 450mm, respectively, which includes passenger cars, vans and light trucks (Class A Vehicles). Part I is currently under revision based on information obtained from new driver eye location studies.

This SAE Recommended Practice establishes two-dimensional Eyellipses representative of 90th, 95th, and 99th percentile increments of driver eye locations for use in passenger cars, trucks, buses and multipurpose passenger vehicles. A uniform method for describing and measuring the driver’s direct and indirect fields of view using the Eyellipse is established in the Recommended Practice, Describing and Measuring the Driver’s Field of View-SAE J1050a.

This SAE Recommended Practice establishes two-dimensional eyellipses representative of 90th, 95th, and 99th percentile increments of driver eye locations and describes procedures for their use in passenger cars, trucks, buses and multipurpose passenger vehicles.

This SAE Recommended Practice establishes two-dimensional eyellipses representative of 90th, 95th, and 99th percentile increments of driver eye locations and describes procedures for their use.

This SAE Recommended Practice establishes two-dimensional eyellipse templates representative of 90th, 95th, and 99th percentile increments of driver eye locations and describes procedures for their use.

This SAE Recommended Practice establishes two-dimensional eye ranges, representative of 90th, 95th, and 99th percentile increments* of the driving population, for use in defining the driver's visual requirements to interior and exterior environments in passenger cars. It is to be used in conjunction with the two-dimensional manikin specified in SAE J826. Definitions of the interior dimensions used in this SAE Recommended Practice are listed as an appendix to this practice and are quoted from Section E1 of the SAE Aerospace-Automotive Drawing Standards. Reproductions of the passenger car driver's eye range contours may be obtained from SAE by ordering eyellipse drawings supplementary to SAE J941.
