SUMMARY:Presentation:Evenings with OLLI: When Driving Changes: How Automation Keeps People Moving
DESCRIPTION:5:30-6pm - Refreshments and Socializing\n6-7pm - Program\n7-7:30pm - Q&A\n\nHow does our driving change as we age and how can automation benefit us? This presentation examines how technology\, particularly advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and automated functions\, can serve as a tool to support safe mobility in later life. We critically look at technologies and assess how they benefit drivers. Results highlight high availability of ADAS among older drivers but also gaps in training and understanding that may limit safety benefits. \n\nDr. Renée St. Louis is the Head of the University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute's (UMTRI) Behavioral Sciences Group\, studying social and behavioral factors shaping transportation safety and mobility across the lifespan. She leads research with diverse participants and has co-authored a book on older adult mobility. \n\nDr. Arpan Kusari is an UMTRI research faculty focused on robust challenges in vehicle automation. He partners with federal agencies and industry to assess sensing and perception\, earning AAAI-2026 Best Poster among other awards.\n\n*The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) at U-M provides educational opportunities for older adults\, designed by older adults. Membership is intended for all enthusiastic learners aged 50 and older\, regardless of previous education or affiliation with U-M.*
