Abstract :
This paper discusses the influence of environmental factors on the value of the steering entropy. In this paper, the environmental factors refer to the conditions of the road, the weather, and the brightness. In order to investigate the above relationship, we conducted an experiment using a driving simulator. The results show that the curve, the tunnel and the crosswind increase the steering entropy.
