Abstract
A driver assisting system calculates a risk perceived (RP) by a driver from the environment, and a potential risk. At least one actuator is coupled to a driver controlled input device (or a driver's seat) to provide a first force to the driver controlled input device to stimulate the driver with a first form of tactile stimulus thereby to forward the calculated risk perceived (RP) to the driver, and to provide a second force to the driver controlled input device to stimulate driver with a second form of tactile stimulus thereby to forward the calculated potential risk to the driver.
