Doze sleepy driving causes many fatal traffic accidents. Furuhata, T., Miyachi, T., and Adachi, T. (2011) proposed a successful new doze sleepy driving prevention system with a combined multiple stimulus that provides (1) a low frequency electrical vibration massage for the palm, (2) a high density oxygen spray, and (3) the fragrance of a grapefruit as aromatherapy[1] [2]. In this study, new stimulus (4) chewing dried shredded squid was included and tested with the other three stimuli (1)(2)(3) together. There were two research conditions, which are following: Condition A is (1)(2)(3) as the traditional system, Condition B is (1)(2)(3), which added the (4) dried squid as the mixed system. Nine long-distance professional truck drivers tested the stimuli while they were driving. The professional drivers’ survey responses are compared. The new method with dried squid, which comprised (1)(2)(3) with(4) dried squid showed better arousal responses than the traditional system(1)(2)(3). Thus, by adding different stimuli, the doze sleepy driving prevention system could arrange to add different stimuli and have the potential to be an even better system. We continue to propose new stimuli to include future computer systems for automobiles
