Driver behavior, vehicle dynamics, road environment — each data stream tells part of the story. But capturing them all, aligned on a single timeline, has always been the challenge.
Different devices, different clocks, different software. Manually syncing them is painful, error‑prone, and takes time away from what actually matters: the science.
That‘s where Human Research Tool（HRT） comes in.
HRT captures driver behavior, vehicle dynamics, and road/environment data — all time‑aligned, all in one place. Play back, compare, and analyze everything on a single timeline. No drift. No manual alignment. Just clean, synchronized data ready for insight.
Case Study——Brain‑Vehicle Interaction – Validated in the Real World
We‘re honored to have supported Prof. Hongyu Hu‘s team from the State Key Laboratory of Automotive Chassis Integration and Bionics at Jilin University in their groundbreaking research on brain‑vehicle interaction for intelligent cockpits.
This study, published in a JCR Q1 journal (IF 8.0), validates the feasibility of fNIRS‑based motor imagery decoding for in‑cabin functional control — an important foundation for future online brain‑vehicle interaction systems.
The research relied on:
●Flexible cockpit from DrivingTech
●SILAB software from WIVW
●Brite fNIRS device from Artinis Medical Systems
HRT served as the data integration backbone, synchronizing all streams onto a unified timeline for seamless playback and analysis.
Case Study——Cognitive Load Estimation
Another milestone: IF 7.9 research from Prof. Dengbo He‘s team at HKUST (GZ) – Driver cognitive load estimation in conditional driving with aligned attention‑enabled multimodal fusion.
INFOTECH GROUP empowered this study with a complete turnkey solution:
●DrivingTech: Compact driving simulator
●INFO.instruments: Ergoneers Dikablis 3 eye tracker & Physiolab physiological recorder
●HRT: The platform for recording and analyzing all human behavioral data
From hardware to software, HRT tied it all together — synchronizing simulator data, eye tracking, and physiological signals into one coherent dataset, enabling the team to focus on their breakthrough rather than data alignment.
Intelligent Driving Simulation Cluster for Jiangsu University
The cluster includes:
●One 7‑DOF dome simulator
●Three compact simulators
●One bicycle simulator
●Driving simulation software
All synced to the millisecond for seamless hardware‑software integration. The cluster enables high‑precision immersive experiments and parallel batch testing to run simultaneously, maximising laboratory utilisation.
