Between Trust and Technology: The Challenges of Modern Driver Assistance Systems

Autor: | Released: 4. September 2025
Prof. Bernhard Schick in einem Podcast Studio für Moove

What truly makes a good assistant? How do these systems actually work, and why do drivers perceive them so differently? Is the problem rooted more in the human – or in the machine? Why is it so difficult to find the right balance of trust in driver assistance systems – and what risks arise when there is either too much or too little trust? What role does the HMI (Human-Machine Interface) play in ADAS, particularly with regard to system transparency and, ultimately, trust? These and many other questions are discussed by Prof. Bernhard Schick, Head of the Institute for Driver…
