Keynote address

From Driver Distraction to Driver Support, the Role of User Interfaces
Karel Brookhuis, Technische Universiteit Delft/Universiteit Groningen, The Netherlands

Karel Brookhuis Short Bio Karel Brookhuis is a (part-time) full professor at the Faculty of TPM at Delft University of Technology and the Department of Psychology of the University of Groningen. He completed his study in Psychology at the University of Groningen, specialising in experimental psychology and psychophysiology, in 1980. Research interests are human factors in occupational settings, particularly traffic and transport, for instance, with respect to driving behaviour in specific conditions. Research topics include effects of psycho-active substances and fatigue on driving behaviour, measurement methods, psycho-physiological aspects of task performance, work load in traffic, specifically under and with ICT applications. Much of this work has been through participation in several large European projects focusing on design and evaluation of new telematics applications (ADAS) in traffic.

Workshop 1 (full-day workshop)
EVIS 2013 - 2nd Workshop on Electric Vehicle Information Systems

Website:

http://mimuc.de/evis2013

Abstract:

Sustainability has become one of the key factors for car manufacturers worldwide. Electric vehicles (EVs) are clean, quiet, efficient, and offer a great opportunity to keep our environment healthy. High effort has been put into new technologies, materials and infrastructure. Though, little research has been done on in-vehicle information systems (IVIS) to fit the needs of EV drivers. We will discuss how electric vehicle information systems (EVIS) and car interiors can be designed to meet challenges inherent in the development process of electric vehicles like e.g. range anxiety, energy recovery/recharging or automated driving. The goal of the workshop will be a summary of the Grand Challenges of EVIS.

Workshop 2 (full-day workshop)
Cognitive Load and In-Vehicle Human-Machine Interaction

Website:

http://www.auto-ui-cogload.unh.edu/

Abstract:

In-vehicle human-machine interaction (HMI) can interfere with the primary task of driving. The concept of cognitive load can help us understand the extent to which these interactions interfere with the driving task and how this interference can be mitigated. While research results on in-vehicle cognitive load are frequently presented at automotive research conferences and in related journals, CLW 2013, the third in the series, will provide a unique forum for focused discussions on this topic.

Workshop 3+6 (full-day workshop)
Joint workshop on Natural UI's and Socially-inspired Mobility Services

Website:

http://blog.hcilab.org/autonui

http://www.pervasive.jku.at/AutoUI13_SocialCar/

Abstract:

This workshop will explore the emerging themes of autonomous driving, social driving and novel user interface approaches. The aim being to define the future landscape for research within and across each these areas. It aims to collect different, radical, innovative, versatile and engaging works that challenge or re-imagine human interactions in today’s automobile space. It will seek to challenge existing thinking by exploring what is possible both now and by the time the autonomous vehicle is a standard feature of our roads. Participants will be encouraged to suggest alternative concepts whether low fidelity, high fidelity, or both. Especially encouraged will be works that are experiential and can be demonstrated hands on. The workshop will be an opportunity to re-shape the conversation of automobile technology by introducing the community to a new way of thinking. A further goal of this workshop is to continue the discussion and exploration of the design space of natural multi-modal automotive user interfaces and to continue the fruitful discussions held at the first two workshops on Automotive Natural User Interfaces at AutomotiveUI 2011 and 2012 [8], [9]. We would like to analyze where and how new interaction techniques can be integrated into the car – for manual and (semi-) autonomous driving situations.

Workshop 5 (half-day workshop)
UCD using Contextual Design: Moving from data to solutions in automotive contextual design process

Website:

http://www.uxgroup-ftca.com/autoUI/

Abstract:

Changes to the contextuality of the driving experience is requiring that OEMs reevaluate the methodologies for developing automotive User Interface. In order to craft a positive user experience in the automotive context, a deep understanding of users’ latent needs, motives, values, desires, and behaviors is necessary. Through our User Experience Group’s involvement in a user-centered design process called Contextual Design [1], we’ve found interpreting data from our contextual inquiries to be the most difficult to conduct internally, as well as explain, and visualize to other non-participating members. It is also the most crucial part in the process as it reveals key insights to the users’ fundamental needs, motives, values, desires, and behaviors. This workshop aims to gather people to discuss and collaborate on the contextual design process of moving from data to solutions. There will be an emphasis on the hands-on activity of interpreting data through affinity diagramming or clustering in small multidisciplinary teams, and utilizing those results effectively.

EIT ICT Labs OpenDS User Convention and Tutorial Day 2013

Website:

http://www.opends.eu/index.php/user-convention-and-tutorial-day-2013

Abstract:

Since its market start in February 2013, the open-source driving simulation software OpenDS (www.opends.eu) attracted more than two 250 users worldwide. World leading universities like the MIT, Stanford, Harvard, KTH, and TU-Berlin are using the tool for their automotive research. The industry is enthusiastic about the project as well: Daimler, BWM, AUDI, Johnson Controls, and others are complementing their set of development-accompanying ICT tools with the freely available Java-based simulator.

People at the Automotive Group of the German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence are the creators of OpenDS. The development is being done world-wide in a growing developer community. Our main focus is providing the users with a simulator that incorporates standard measurements and driving tasks for a wide variety of experimental designs. Here, OpenDS closely collaborates with the Driver Interface Group at the Transportation Research Institute of the University of Michigan led by Paul Green. Other lines of work include creation of driving scenarios (models), physics, and interfaces to Hardware (car, cab, projection, eye-tracking, cameras, sensors…). 

The core of the Software is being developed in the project GetHomeSafe (www.gethomesafe-fp7.eu) funded by the European Commission in Framework Programme 7. EIT ICT Labs (www.eitictlabs.eu) is supporting OpenDS with open-source funding and business modeling. The startup company white|c (www.white-c.com) was founded in order to provide professional support and commercial extensions for OpenDS.

In conjunction with AutomotiveUI 2013, the International Conference on Automotive User Interfaces and Interactive Vehicular Applications (AutomotiveUI 2013), EIT ICT Labs, DFKI, and white|c are proud to announce the First OpenDS User Convention and Tutorial Day on October 26 th, 27 th in Eindhoven, The Netherlands.
