New research probes effectiveness of AR to improve self-driving car safety
Researchers from UofG have been testing the potential of augmented reality technology to allow drivers to enjoy the benefits of being driven by an autonomous vehicle while enabling them to quickly take the wheel if required. The team’s paper, titled ‘Can You Hazard a Guess? Evaluating the Effects of Augmented Reality Cues on Driver Hazard Prediction’, will be presented at the Association of Computing Machinery CHI conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems next month. -

New analysis reveals brutal history of Winchcombe meteorite's space journey
The study was led by Dr Luke Daly (GES) who led the search party which recovered the largest fragment of the Winchcombe meteorite after it was spotted as a fireball streaking across the skies over Gloucestershire on February 28th, 2021. Analysis of those minerals within the Winchcombe meteorite will help scientists unravel the answers to questions around the processes which formed our Solar System, including the possible origins of the Earth’s water.
