Abstract

Driving stress can impact the driving performance that has an impact on the overall driving experiences. It is a vital area to focus on when the traffic scenario is challenging in terms of having traffic congestion, unruly drivers, and a lack of law enforcement. In Bangladesh, these issues are frequent on the roads. That is why we looked at self-reported stress scores of professional drivers, their personality analysis and conducted mixed-method (quantitative and qualitative) user studies that provided us a clear indication of driving stress. Then the findings motivated us to design and develop a low-cost real-time stress measurement wearable through human-centered computing, users’ feedback, and experiences. This wearable unit can understand bodily stress from physiological factors using Heart Rate Variability along with road conditions. This technology can help in supporting drivers in increasing self-awareness regarding driving stress, which will have a positive impact on drivers’ wellbeing and overall driving performance.
