DriveSafety is proud to be partnered in its development of clinical rehabilitation tools with CU-ICAR (Clemson University International Center for Automotive Research), a world-class center of research and education focused on Automotive Engineering, including Systems Integration and Human Factors. We work closely with Dr. Johnell O. Brooks, nationally recognized leader in the development and testing of advanced tools for clinical care. Dr. Brooks holds a Clinical Research Faculty Appointment in the Department of Medicine at the Greenville Health System. CU-ICAR and DriveSafety collaborate intimately in the planning, development and testing of the SimClinic® libraries of therapist-inspired driving scenarios and clinical activities for DriveSafety simulators, as well as the DS-Control operator interface. Dr. Brooks and her team play a key role for our team in obtaining feedback from clinicians using our tools and providing guidance for future development. CU-ICAR also uses its expertise and advanced facilities to conduct usability testing of DriveSafety clinical simulation systems hardware and software.
