Windshield displays (WSDs) are information displays covering the entire windshield. Current WSD test setups place information at different distances, but always within the drivers foveal field of view. We built two WSD test setups, which present information not only at various distances within the drivers visual focus, but also in the peripheral field of view. Then we evaluated the display of information in the periphery on both WSD setups in a user study. While making sure the participants would look at the peripheral information, we measured the displays impact on driving performance. Subjects were also asked about their driving experience with the windshield displays and their preference among the two setups.
