Abstract
Eco-driving is effective for the reduction of the carbon dioxide emitted by a vehicle. And the pedal operation of the eco-driving such as smooth acceleration at start, few acceleration and deceleration, and early pedal release is complicated, so those operations may produce fatigue. However, influence on drivers by the eco-driving has still not been verified adequately. Then, this research measures EMG signals of the lower limbs, and verifies fatigue levels by the eco-driving. This paper accomplishes these experiments with a driving simulator.
