From a human factors perspective, ATIS and CVO are key components of IVHS. But impressive technology does not guarantee consumer acceptance. Several issues concerning acceptance of new technology are discussed including product characteristics, consumer characteristics, and implications for CVO. Two experiments that evaluate driver acceptance are described.
