Ergonomics - Motor Vehicle Drivers’ Eye Locations
1 Scope
This Standard provides eye locations and eyellipse positioning procedure for Chinese
motor vehicle drivers.
This Standard is applicable to visual field design for Class M1 motor vehicles whose
seat stroke is more than 133 mm.

3 Terms and Definitions
Terms and definitions defined in GB/T 15089-2001 and GB/T 29120-2012 are
applicable to this Standard.
3.1 Eyellipse
Eyellipse refers to the statistical representation of drivers’ eyes in spatially relative
internal vehicle reference point locations (please refer to Figure 1).
In vertical view (Z plane) and rear view (X plane), eyellipse X-axis is parallel to vehicle
axis.
4.3.2  angle of lateral view direction
Please refer to Formula (1) for eyellipse axis inclination in the lateral view direction:
4.4 Eyellipse Central Location
Eyellipse central location shall be calculated in accordance with Formula (2) ~ Formula
(5). Please refer to Figure 3 for the geometric relationships of various parameters.
Where,
Xc---along X direction, the distance between X-axis datum line and eyellipse central
location, expressed in (mm);
L1---X coordinate of acceleration pedal reference point;
L6---the distance from steering wheel’s central point to acceleration pedal reference
point in X direction, expressed in (mm);
H30---the distance from SgRP to acceleration pedal heel point in Z direction,
expressed in (mm);
t---variable value (set as 1 when there is clutch pedal; set as 0 when there is no clutch
pedal);
Ycl, Ycr---along Y direction, the distance between the left - right eyellipse center and
eyellipse central point, expressed in (mm);
W20---Y coordinate value of SgRP;
Zc---along Z direction, the distance between SgRP and eyellipse central point,
expressed in (mm);
H8---Z coordinate value of heel point.
NOTE 1: Chinese body’s average interpupillary distance shall take relevant national
Chinese body’s average

W20---Y coordinate value of SgRP;
H8---coordinate value of heel point in Z axis direction;
H30---distance from SgRP to heel point in Z axis direction, expressed in (mm);
t---variable value (set as 1 when there is clutch pedal; set as 0 when there is no clutch
pedal).
B.3.2 Seat vertical adjustability
In terms of seats whose height is adjustable, in Formula (2) ~ Formula (5) in this
Standard, H30 (SgRP) should take half of the vertical adjustable range. Generally
speaking, SgRP height should be 20 mm ~ 25 mm above the lowest H-point. If the
adjustment stroke in the vertical direction is more than 40 mm, H-point should be
designed at 20 mm above the lowest position. If the adjustment stroke in the vertical
direction is less than 40 mm, H-point should be designed in the middle of the height
adjustment stroke.
B.4 Eyellipse Axis Length
B.4.1 X-axis length
In terms of X-axis length, axis length refers to the actual distance, instead of the
horizontal distance in X direction. Figure B.1 and Figure B.2 provide the process of
axis length calculation in the lateral view.

Figure B.2 -- Determination of Eye Points’ Terminal Point and Length on X-axis
In the lateral view, the correlation coefficient of drivers’ eye space coordinates and
height is 0.473. In other words, in the lateral view, when the height difference between
two drivers is 10 mm, the coordinate space point difference between them is 4.73 mm.
In addition, the taller driver is located in the rear. Similarly, when the average height
difference between two populations is 10 mm, in the lateral view, the eyellipse central
location also has a difference of 4.73 mm. Due to the difference between the average
height of male and female, their height distribution also differs in the lateral view.
Therefore, in the calculation of axis length in the lateral view direction, the influence of
gender needs to be taken into consideration.
Furthermore, eyellipse height shall consider population height difference. The
determination of X-axis length in the lateral view includes two steps. Firstly, determine
the distribution of eye points on X-axis. Then, find the upper limit point and lower limit
point of the distribution; the distance between the two points shall represent the axis
length. As a matter of fact, the coordinates of eye points in the lateral view comply with
two-dimensional normal distribution of male and female.
In order to simplify boundary calculation, the eyellipse central point shall be taken as
the origin of coordinates. In accordance with the offset of the central location, boundary
distance may be calculated. Firstly, in accordance with Formula (B.5) and Formula
(B.6), determine male and female eyellipse central location.
Where,
M, F---represent the distance of male and female eye points relative to the central
location in the lateral view, expressed in (mm);
SM, SF---represent male and female average height, expressed in (mm);
