Representing the automation system as an anthropomorphic virtual assistant that communicates the system's behavior could help to build and maintain trust. To explore such assistants, a prototype of an anthropomorphic virtual assistant was designed and integrated in a conditionally automated vehicle. In a driving simulator experiment with a between-group design (n = 56), participants experienced either an anthropomorphic 2D or stereoscopic 3D virtual assistant. While driving, distrust towards the automation system was gradually evoked. We analyzed trust and driving behavior. The current study yielded findings that the implementation of stereoscopic 3D impacts overtaking behavior, potentially fosters safety-consciousness and mitigates inappropriate usage of the system. We further report on the design of the virtual assistant.","PeriodicalId":237150,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Automotive User Interfaces and Interactive Vehicular Applications: Adjunct Proceedings","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122287348","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recent research is addressing driver take-over requests coping with these limitations. A more efficient way is to support the vehicle cooperatively and address the particular requirements that the car cannot meet sufficiently. Based on the examination of human information processing and behavioral execution processes a new interface framework, which relies on learned behavior patterns, is presented. A simulator study compared touch interaction with the proposed approach and a gesture control for maneuver initiation without a complete take-over. The new approach seems to improve the assurance behavior and proper situation awareness, whereas usability mistakes were found in the practical implementation of the new interaction concept.","PeriodicalId":237150,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Automotive User Interfaces and Interactive Vehicular Applications: Adjunct Proceedings","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133099397","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By democratizing the decision making process surrounding the driving style of the car, all passengers have the opportunity to contribute to the travelling experience. The presented concept is an exploration aimed at inspiring designers of humancomputer interaction in the car to let go of conventional hierarchies between passengers in a car context, which will be especially relevant in designing autonomous vehicles and car-sharing systems.","PeriodicalId":237150,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Automotive User Interfaces and Interactive Vehicular Applications: Adjunct Proceedings","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116461243","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Especially older people can benefit from such a technology, since age may have an impact on the driving ability. However, only few driving assistance systems focusing on the needs of the generation 50+ also consider opportunities of highly automated vehicles, such as the usage of head-mounted displays while driving. In a survey with drivers of 50+ years (N=26), we found that 81% had a basic knowledge of automated vehicles (AVs) but 73% would not buy an AV or are in doubt. In this WIP report, we present our research approach leading to a novel system for automated driving, addressing the needs of the generation 50+. We believe that the proposed system can foster the safety and acceptance of users in this age group and beyond.","PeriodicalId":237150,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Automotive User Interfaces and Interactive Vehicular Applications: Adjunct Proceedings","volume":"24 1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116693982","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Beside a short questionnaire, the driving behavior was observed and qualitatively evaluated. While all participants felt motivated by the possibility to compete with their colleagues, the creation of time pressure was not successful. Though, the effects of said distraction and time pressure on the driving behavior was noticeable.

In 54% of all TOR events, drivers began manual driving with braking, in 33% with throttle application, and in 13% with steering inputs.
