Motion Sickness Mitigation

Brown Laboratories on the North Campus of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor on Wednesday afternoon, June 12, 2022.
Autonomous vehicles create the opportunity for passengers to perform productive tasks during their commutes. However, it is estimated that motion sickness afflicts one in three adults in the United States traveling in passenger vehicles. The aim of their project is to design, build, and test a motion sickness mitigation system such as an active seat, active restraint, active passenger stimuli, and active productivity interface.
