“It is great working collaboratively with Lisa in applying myDRIVESCHOOL® to our ongoing data collection with a spin-off project called 'Pilgari Systems' from our IMPACT10X Internship ( Nov 2022 - Feb 2023). Pilgari Systems has now been accepted into the JCU Founders-in-Residence Portfolio to advance the AI-machine learning model and collect further data in driving performance pre/post-intervention. Lisa's great virtual program/technology myDRIVESCHOOL® provides this amazing opportunity for vision-impaired drivers. Virtual driving technology, such as myDRIVESCHOOL® provides a safe and controlled environment for vision-impaired drivers to learn and practice driving skills while testing advanced assistive technologies (e.g. orcam). It allows for the simulation of various scenarios, such as driving in different weather conditions, navigating through heavy traffic, and handling emergency situations. With virtual driving technology, vision-impaired drivers can gain confidence and experience without the risk of accidents or damage to vehicles. Moreover, myDRIVESCHOOL® has helped reduce the cost of specialized traditional driving training programs. By using simulators, drivers can reduce the number of hours they need to spend on the road with an instructor or in a car, which can be costly in terms of both time and money. Overall, myDRIVESCHOOL® technology is a valuable tool for our current research and provides effective driver training with an instant bio-feedback loop. It offers a safe, cost-effective, and efficient way to learn and practice driving skills, and can ultimately lead to safer roads for all. It is a great compliment for Pilgari Systems which is a 'plug & play' deep - tech for any car. Thanks, Lisa for partnering with the JCU- Founders-in-Residence and supporting our ongoing development and testing of 'Pilgari Systems'.”
