This SAE Standard establishes a uniform test procedure and performance requirements for off throttle steering and obstacle avoidance capabilities of personal watercraft. Personal watercrafts intended to be operated by a single operator who either stands or kneels in a tray located behind a moveable handlepole are exempted from this SAE Standard. This SAE Standard does not apply to outboard powered personal watercraft and jet powered surfboards

The current development of automotive lighting strives towards more and more lighting installations on vehicles. Additionally, to that, manufacturers start animating these lighting installations as coming home or leaving home greetings from the car to the driver. In a previous paper we have shown, that these additional animations are in fact not distracting to other road users and when used correctly, e.g. in a sequential turn indicator, can be beneficial to the overall traffic safety. This study then aims to investigate the potential influence of illuminated logos on road safety. European lawmakers forbid the use of illuminated advertisements on vehicles to minimize the danger of distraction for other road users and thereby negatively influencing traffic safety. As of now, active illumination of the manufacturer’s logo is considered an advertisement. For this, a test vehicle was setup with two high luminance monitors, one at the front, one at the back, capable of producing 4000 cd/m2

Two research fields are presented in this paper covering new lighting functions. In the first part, a study is presented that evaluates distraction by light animations. 41 test subjects were involved, and a situation was constructed with several traffic participants and an animated-light vehicle parked so as to be conspicuously within the test subjects’ view. 91% of the test subjects stated they felt little or no distraction or impairment from the light display on the parked car. 29% noticed something conspicuous about the test vehicle. 22% indicated they had noticed the car’s lights flashing as its central locking system was operating. Only 7%—three of the 41 participants—noticed the animations in addition to their traffic monitoring. Of these, two said they didn’t feel disturbed at all by the animations while the third found it only very slightly distracting. Nobody said the distraction or impairment was “neutral”, “little bit” or “strong”. So this study concludes that there is no

This SAE Recommended Practice defines the test conditions, procedures and performance requirements for evaluating the off throttle steering capabilities of personal watercraft. This document covers both single and multiple rider craft commencing in 2006 model year. No provision of this section shall apply to PWC intended to be operated by a single operator who either stands or kneels in a tray located behind a moveable handlepole

It is recognized that a malfunction in any one of the specified areas can degrade intended performance, but that levels of malfunction or combinations thereof must be considered by the vehicle designer in determining the point at which a failure indication is warranted. Consequently, the minimum reaction recommended by this document consists of making available a malfunction signal

The recommendations cover the type of flight instrumentation in use today or planned for use in the near future on transport category aircraft. Four instrument panel arrangements are shown based on the use of flight instruments presently available. Systems 1 & 2 show layouts adaptable to transport aircraft employing flight instruments in general use today. The arrangements shown in Systems 3 & 4 using computer type instruments dictate the use of an instrument combining the Direction and ADF functions - the RMI. It was felt that this was necessary in order to arrive at a better all-around standard layout and to conserve instrument panel space
