Amy's PhD project involves exploring pedestrian interactions with autonomous vehicles (AVs). The project aims to develop an understanding of distracted pedestrian behaviour through systematic investigation and testing/application of theoretical psychological models to road user behaviour. Within the wider context of AVs, these principles can be applied to AV system design guidelines with a view to improving efficiency and safety on public roads.
