Short-term memory optical flow image

Abstract

Driver takes the attentions for the several objects that include the red road sign, the center line of the road and moving vehicles in the wide region. We introduce the eye movement based on the parallel task model to simulate the eye movement based on the attentions which driver takes for the several objects to the computation model of eye movement. Though viewpoint moves in the wide region to react a moving vehicle in a moment, it is difficult to identify the moving objects in the periphery of the retina, as the resolution is high in the center of the retina, and low in the periphery of it We introduce the eye movement to react the motion in the wide region in a moment by saving the optical flow in the short-term memory to the computation model of eye movement. We call it the short-term memory optical flow image. We successfully simulate the driver's eye movement in an open road to take the attention for the several objects that include the red road sign, the center line of the road and moving vehicles. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2003.
