Eight experimental stages.

StagesDurations (min)Description

WUP8–10Also called “warm-up,” collecting baseline of EEG, ECG, and EOG when driving a car at a predetermined speed.
PERFO7–9Also called “performance,” similar to WUP, just has a higher driving speed than that of WUP.

TAV37–9These 5 stages are concurrently exerted task of attention (sound) and video stimuli with different frequency levels. The stages from low to high stimulus frequency are TAV1, TAV2, TAV3, TAV4, TAV5.
