Im Zentrum dieses Workshops stehen Erkenntnisse zur Mensch-Computer-Interaktion in sicherheitskritischen Anwendungsgebieten. Da in solchen Feldern – etwa Katastrophenmanagement, Verkehr, Produktion oder Medizin – immer häufiger MCI stattfindet, sind viele wissenschaftliche Gebiete, unter anderem die Informatik, zunehmend gefragt. Die Herausforderung besteht darin, bestehende Ansätze und Methoden zu diskutieren, anzupassen und innovative Lösungsansätze zu entwickeln.
Even though many aspects of automated driving have not yet become reality, many human factors issues have already been investigated. However, recent discussions revealed common misconceptions in both research and society about vehicle automation and the levels of automation levels. This might be due to the fact that automated driving functions are misnamed (cf. Autopilot) and that vehicles integrate functions at different automation levels (L1 lane keeping assistant, L2/L3 traffic jam assist, L4 valet parking). The user interface is one of the most critical issues in the interaction between humans and vehicles--and diverging mental models might be a major challenge here. Today's (manual) vehicles are ill-suited for appropriate HMI testing for automated vehicles. Instead, virtual or mixed reality might be a much better playground to test new interaction concepts in an automated driving setting.
Die breite Einführung autonomer Fahrzeuge, ob für den Individualverkehr oder auch den öffentlichen Nahverkehr, ist nur noch eine Frage der Zeit. Dies bedeutet unweigerlich, dass in absehbarer Zeit alle Verkehrsteilnehmer*innen mit dieser Art von Fahrzeugen in Berührung kommen werden. In diesem Artikel soll diskutiert werden, wie Ansätze des Positive Computing helfen können, die Ausgestaltung der automatisierten Fahrzeuge so vorzunehmen, dass sie zum Wohlbefinden der Menschen in Verkehrssituationen beitragen.
Blended learning offers learning solutions for higher educational institutions facing the industrial revolution 4.0. In this study, we investigated the influence factors student perceptions of blended learning based on gender-specific differences in Indonesia. We applied a research model to systematically assess the effect of design features on the effectiveness of blended learning indicators (intrinsic motivation and student satisfaction). Moreover, we evaluated the research model for both genders separately. Based on the quantitative survey of 223 Indonesian students, our study confirms that the design features significantly influence the effectiveness of blended learning for male and female students.
In the field of producing hot-rolled steel bars and wires, hot rolling mills are incomplete or barely equipped with measuring technology for recording relevant process parameters. Therefore, there is a big potential to increase product quality and to decrease costs and scrap by improving process control establishing new sensor systems. One of these crucial parameters is the roll gap,which is investigated as part of the research project PIREF. In this paper an experimental setup for examining the roll gap during a rolling process is presented and based on these results different sensor arrangements are discussed.
The uprising levels of autonomous vehicles allow the drivers to shift their attention to non-driving tasks while driving (ie, texting, reading, or watching movies). However, these systems are prone to failure and, thus, depending on human intervention becomes crucial in critical situations. In this work, we propose using human actuation as a new mean of communicating take-over requests (TOR) through proprioception. We conducted a user study via a driving simulation in the presence of a complex working memory span task. We communicated TORs through four different modalities, namely, vibrotactile, audio, visual, and proprioception. Our results show that the vibrotactile condition yielded the fastest reaction time followed by proprioception. Additionally, proprioceptive cues resulted in the second best performance of the non-driving task following auditory cues.
Process diagnosis is an important method for improving product quality in rolling mills. In addition, the measurement of process variables such as roll gap, cross-sectional area, velocity, and volume flow of the material during production enables the implementation of model-based control concepts to improve product quality. The non-contact speed measurement of hot wire and bar is still a big challenge due to the rough environmental conditions and is solved mainly with optical measuring methods in production. The alternative measurement principle with eddy current sensors presented in this paper enables velocity measurement at locations in a rolling mill where optical measurement methods are not suitable.
Relax yourself - Using Virtual Reality to enhance employees mental health and work performance
(2019)
This paper presents work-in-progress aiming to develop an actively adapting virtual reality (VR) relaxation application. Due to the immersive nature of VR technologies, people can escape from their real environment and get into a relaxing state. Goal of the application is to adapt to the users' physiological signals to foster the positive effect. Until now, a first version of the VR application was constructed and is currently evaluated in an experiment. Preliminary results of this study demonstrate that people appreciate the immersion into the virtual environment and escape from reality. Moreover, participants highlighted the option to adapt users' needs and preferences. Based on the final study data, the constructed application will be enhanced with regard to adoption and surrounding factors.
Vor dem Hintergrund globaler Vernetzung, Digitalisierung und Big Data geht das Excel-Zeitalter seinem Ende entgegen. Neue Technologien versprechen eine höhere Effizienz und Effektivität des Controllings. Die Veränderungen umfassen dabei alle Aufgabenbereiche des Controllings – allerdings mit unterschiedlicher Geschwindigkeit und differenzierten Lösungsansätzen. Der vorliegende Beitrag untersucht drei Technologien, die im Controlling derzeit besonders stark diskutiert werden: Robotic Process Automation, Predictive Analytics und Künstliche Intelligenz. Im Rahmen eines Forschungsseminars an der Hochschule Ruhr West in Mülheim a.d.R. wurden dazu 57 Führungskräfte aus Controlling und Rechnungswesen befragt. Über 75% der befragten Unternehmen halten die Digitalisierung für wichtig, mehr als die Hälfte (52%) beabsichtigen, eine oder mehrere der drei untersuchten Technologien in den nächsten drei Jahren neu einzusetzen. In den Aufgabenbereichen ist bislang vor allem das Reporting digital unterstützt, in der Strategischen Planung und im Risikomanagement ist dagegen die Digitalisierung gering. Wesentliche Hindernisse sehen die Befragten im fehlenden Know-How und mangelnder Veränderungsbereitschaft.
