Method for assisting a person operating an ego-vehicle in assessing a dynamically changing traffic environment representative of a region in the environment of the ego-vehicle, the ego-vehicle having mounted at least one sensor (1, 2, 3, 4), a processor and a signal generator for driving an actuator (8.1, 8.2), the method comprising steps of monitoring, by the at least one sensor (1, 2, 3, 4) the person and the environment of the ego-vehicle, and determining, by the processor, a gaze direction of the person based on signals including information on a gaze behavior of the person provided by the at least one sensor (1, 2, 3, 4), and identifying a target object based thereon; analyzing, by the processor, the signals including information on a gaze behavior of the person for determining whether a request for initiating an assistance by the person is included, and interpreting the signals including information on a gaze behavior of the person, wherein determining whether a request for initiating an assistance is included comprises continuously obtaining measurements of the person, determining variations in behavior of the person, estimating for each measurement a likelihood describing whether additional information is beneficial to the person, and in case the estimated likelihood exceeds a predetermined threshold, activating assistance to the person, and in case of determining that activating assistance is requested by the person, identifying, based on the signals including information on a gaze behavior of the person, a region of interest in the environment or a region associated with the region of interest by correlating the determined gaze direction of the person with a region of the environment and one or more entities including the target object in the region of interest or in the region associated with the region of interest, generating prediction information predicting a future behavior of the target object and the ego-vehicle; estimating a time-to-event or a distance or a distance variation between the ego-vehicle and the target object; generating a signal adapted to drive the actuator (8.1, 8.2) and indicative of the estimated time-to-event or distance or distance variation (S9, S11), wherein the actuator (8.1, 8.2) causes a stimulation being perceivable by the person by its perceptual capabilities, wherein the stimulation is indicative of the estimated time-to-event or distance or distance variation. monitoring, by the at least one sensor (1, 2, 3, 4) the person and the environment of the ego-vehicle, and determining, by the processor, a gaze direction of the person based on signals including information on a gaze behavior of the person provided by the at least one sensor (1, 2, 3, 4), and identifying a target object based thereon; analyzing, by the processor, the signals including information on a gaze behavior of the person for determining whether a request for initiating an assistance by the person is included, and interpreting the signals including information on a gaze behavior of the person, wherein determining whether a request for initiating an assistance is included comprises continuously obtaining measurements of the person, determining variations in behavior of the person, estimating for each measurement a likelihood describing whether additional information is beneficial to the person, and in case the estimated likelihood exceeds a predetermined threshold, activating assistance to the person, and in case of determining that activating assistance is requested by the person, identifying, based on the signals including information on a gaze behavior of the person, a region of interest in the environment or a region associated with the region of interest by correlating the determined gaze direction of the person with a region of the environment and one or more entities including the target object in the region of interest or in the region associated with the region of interest, generating prediction information predicting a future behavior of the target object and the ego-vehicle; estimating a time-to-event or a distance or a distance variation between the ego-vehicle and the target object; generating a signal adapted to drive the actuator (8.1, 8.2) and indicative of the estimated time-to-event or distance or distance variation (S9, S11), wherein the actuator (8.1, 8.2) causes a stimulation being perceivable by the person by its perceptual capabilities, wherein the stimulation is indicative of the estimated time-to-event or distance or distance variation.
