Hype Dlive: XR Live Performance System for Improving Passenger Comfort in Autonomous Driving

Abstract

One of the stress factors for passengers in an autonomous vehicle is the stress from vehicle behavior caused by unpredictable acceleration, deceleration, and route changes. Although there are researches on stress reduction methods using behavior control and information presentation to realize a comfortable autonomous vehicle, there are still few methods for stress reduction and dissipation through application to XR entertainment. In this work, we propose "Hype Dlive", a system that utilizes vehicle behavior as XR live music performance, and aims to improve passenger comfort by utilizing vehicle behavior as tactile and vestibular stimuli to generate a sense of presence and excitement.
