The study of pedestrian's behaviour facing autonomous vehicles and VR technology are combined in this experiment. This project uses python to analyse the outputs of the pilot of the main experiment. Assumptions made in the process helped to get closer to the goal of visualise the data and calculate key values. The theory on median critical gap was used to determine at which point half of the participants would cross. Demographic data is used to assess if the data gathered is representative or not. The determination of wait times showed the impact of different circumstances on the participant.
