Abstract: In the traditional simulated driving, the training of normal scenes has received too much attention, the monitoring and assistance of the trainees’ psychological state in the accident scenes has been overlooked, and the driving psychological state has obtained no feedback and evaluation. In order to solve these problems, based on brain-computer interaction (BCI) and virtual reality (VR), a virtual reality simulated driving teaching demonstration system was developed. The simulated driving operating system was developed by using three-dimensional dynamics engine. And the wearable electroencephalogram (EEG) signal detection helmet was designed on hardware. The monitoring and data evaluation of the trainees’ brain state during simulated driving was realized based on BCI technology. When a sudden simulated event occurs, the system will automatically brake or assist driving through brain-computer interface technology. After completing the simulated driving training, emergency rescue measures can be given according to EEG feedback in the accident. In addition the students’ performance and psychological quality can be assessed based on EEG. The method proposed in this article provides a richer and more immersive interactive operation mode for the teaching and training with higher cognitive load, such as virtual driving, and improves the practicality and usability of the teaching and training system in this field.
