N2 - Autonomous vehicles (AVs) have the potential to transform the way we live. Nevertheless, at least in the near foreseeable future, it seems that AVs will not be able to resolve every problem they encounter and thus, there will be a need for human involvement in the form of remote vehicle teleoperation. However, it is still unclear how such a teleoperation station should be designed and which views should be presented to the teleoperator. In this study, we examine the effect of a bird's eye view (BEV) on situation awareness in tele-driving. We compare a regular frontal view with two different arrangements of BEV added to the frontal view. Our findings indicate that adding a BEV does not improve the situation awareness of the tele-driver, and in some cases, even makes it more difficult for the user to perceive some important environmental features.
