The objective of this work is to present a concept for a very simple driver interface to be used in a night vision system and to partially test its effectiveness. The display consists of a pedestrian icon that indicates when there are pedestrians near the future path of the vehicle. The next generation of automotive night vision systems will likely continue to use in-vehicle displays that show enhanced images of the forward driving scene. In some displays there may also be highlighting of pedestrian and animals, which has been argued to be the primary safety goal of night vision systems. There are other design considerations for future night vision displays, such as improving mobility, addressing the driver's desire for better vision of the road and providing the driver with a sense of support for subjective situation awareness. In this work, however, we focus on safety considerations.
