Method for Evaluating Performance of Wipers Based on Visibility Takashi KITAYAMA Mikiko KAWASUMI Hatsuo YAMASAKI Tomoaki NAKANO Shin YAMAMOTO Muneo YAMADA Yuta DOI Publication IEICE TRANSACTIONS on Electronics Vol.E95-C No.11 pp.1716-1723 Publication Date: 2012/11/01 Online ISSN: 1745-1353 DOI: 10.1587/transele.E95.C.1716 Print ISSN: 0916-8516 Type of Manuscript: Special Section INVITED PAPER (Special Section on Electronic Displays) Category: Keyword: wiper, visibility, wiping performance, frequency analysis, contrast, Full Text: FreePDF(5.6MB) Summary: There is no clear criterion yet for evaluating wipers based on performances of wiping raindrops and visibility in forward view. In the visibility evaluation in rainy driving, it is important to examine spatial frequency and contrast of objects in forward view. Spatial frequency and contrast of image which were affected by raindrops are calculated based on them of background board which were printed stripe patterns. Variations with time of power of analysed frequency and decreased contrast are synchronized with motion of the wiper for the all experimental cases. Moreover, we executed questionnaire, and evaluated the view of the background board. These results show that the proposed methods have been validated in evaluation with wiping performance. | |||||
