  • Publication number: 20240409105
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for mitigating stress experienced by a driver or passenger of a vehicle due to motive guidance received by the vehicle. For example, a vehicle may be instructed/may receive driving guidance to take a particular action(s) or perform a maneuver(s). One or more elements in the environment about or relative to the vehicle may cause the driver/passenger stress. A stress mitigation system may determine a cause of the stress, and seek to mitigate that stress by generating a micro cloud of environmental elements (e.g., neighboring vehicles, roadside equipment, etc.) and reorganizing one or more of those environmental elements.
