About R2ND2

Repeated Route Naturalistic Driving Dataset (R2ND2) is a dual-perspective dataset for driver behavior analysis constituent of vehicular data collected using task-specific CAN decoding sensors using OBD port and external sensors, and (b) gaze-measurements collected using industry-standard multi-camera gaze calibration and collection system. Our experiment is designed to consider the variability associated with driving experience that depends on the time of day and provides valuable insights into the correlation of these additional metrics on driver behavior. The data is collected among 10 participants with varying driving expertise. Each driver drive through highway and secondary route mapped in Route map section in morning, day and evening. The research is one of many efforts from Mason Living Innovation Lab towards safe driving practices and intelligent transportation systems. Meet our team:

Sensor Setup for the experiment

OBD Scanner Setup


We used the OpenDBC protocol to decode the CAN message using the following sensors:

  1. Arduino UNO.
  2. SparkFun CAN-BUS Shield.
  3. GPS Receiver EM-506 SparkFun.
  4. YOST Labs TSS-WTS-S v2.6a IMU.

Gaze-Detection Setup


We used the industry standard Gaze Detection and Measurement sensors from SmartEye constituent of the following:

  1. 3 x Smart Eye IR cameras (Dimension:17x31x31mm, Resolution: 3MP, Lens Focal Length: 16 mm).
  2. 2 x IR emitters (Wavelength: 850 nm).
  3. Logitech C922 HD Webcam (1080p).
  4. GNSS200L USB GNSS (Global navigation satellite system) Receiver.
  5. SmartEye pro adapter module for data sync.

Experimental Route Map

The experiment was carried out in Highway and Secondary Routes between George Mason Arlington Campus and George Mason Fairfax Campus, the specific route maps with the GPS speed are illustrated as:

Data visualization

There are 224 data features to work with, 32 features from the OBD scanner and 192 from the eye gaze measurement system. Each features can be visualized and compared against time or any other metric of measurement

Vehicular Data visualization

Considering speed to be a common measure of interest, here we have visualized speed from three different participants in three different time of day while driving through Highway.

Gaze Measurements Visualization

We are excited to share that we are able to provide actual scene footage with blurred license plate and pedestrian faces. Along with that we also provided extracted gaze-only video as seen on the left below. The gaze-mapping can be used in multiple ways like through gaze heatmaps or line plots of gaze-progressions as seen in the right below.
