In this demo paper we present a new visualization technique for dynamic networks. It displays the time slices of the dynamic network using two dimensional graph layouting algorithms and stacks these in the third dimension to show the development over time. The visualization ensures that the same node always has the same position in each time slice so that it is easy to follow its development. It also allows filtering data and influencing node appearance based on properties. Additionally we offer a two dimensional comparison view for two time slices which highlights changes in graph structure and (if available) in measures of nodes. The presented visualization technique is implemented using Web technology and is available in a Web-based analytics workbench. We demonstrate the benefits of these techniques by an analysis of a data set from a learning community.
Starting with the automatic gear change, the operation of a vehicle becomes more and more abstract. In the future, we could control vehicles with single, simple commands. For such a maneuver-based vehicle control system, we investigate a head-up display design in a workshop. The aims are to identify common and distinct features of various display designs through mock-ups. First results show that different sizes of GUI elements are preferred by different states. The preferred position of GUI elements in the head-up display (HUD) is the central bottom area. We found two major interface design styles: static interfaces (all elements visible) with fixed layout and dynamic interfaces (only relevant elements visible) with fixed or adaptive layout.
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.
Understanding user needs and behavior in automated vehicles (AVs) while traveling is essential for future in-vehicle interface and service design. Since AVs are not yet market-ready, current knowledge about AV use and perception is based on observations in other transportation modes, interviews, or surveys about the hypothetical situation. In this paper, we close this gap by presenting real-world insights into the attitude towards highly automated driving and non-driving-related activities (NDRAs). Using a Wizard of Oz AV, we conducted a real-world driving study (N= 12) with six rides per participant during multiple days. We provide insights into the users’ perceptions and behavior. We found that (1) the users’ trust a human driver more than a system,(2) safety is the main acceptance factor, and (3) the most popular NDRAs were being idle and the use of the smartphone.
Recently, rescue worker resources have not been sufficient to meet the regular response time during large-scale catastrophic events in every case. However, many volunteers supported official forces in different disaster situations, often self-organized through social media. In this paper, a system will be introduced which allows the coordination of trained volunteers by a professional control center with the objective of a more efficient distribution of human resources and technical equipment. Volunteers are contacted via app on their private smartphone. The design of this app is based on user requirements gathered in focus group discussions. The feedback of the potential users includes privacy aspects, low energy consumption, and mechanisms for long-term motivation and training. The authors present the results of the focus group analyses as well as the transfer to their app design concept.
Bei Großschadensereignissen kann es durch die Vielzahl der Alarme dazu kommen, dass die verfügbaren Rettungskräfte nicht mehr ausreichen, um die anfallenden Aufgaben zu bewältigen oder Hilfsfristen einzuhalten. Die vorliegende Arbeit beschreibt einen Ansatz, sich zusätzlicher Hilfe aus der Bevölkerung zu bedienen, die über einen Disponenten aus der vorhandenen Leitstelle koordiniert wird. Dabei stehen nicht spontan organisierte Helfer im Vordergrund, sondern Personen, die sich vorab mit einem klaren Fertigkeitsprofil und ggf. auch Ausstattung im System registriert haben. Besondere Anforderungen entstehen bei den Disponenten der Leitstelle, deren Mehrbelastung durch das neue System gering zu halten ist, als auch bei den freiwilligen Helfern, die über eine App auf dem Mobiltelefon alarmiert werden und auch darüber die Kommunikation führen sollen. Die Anforderungen beeinflussen sowohl die System-Infrastruktur als auch die Benutzerschnittstelle.
In catastrophic events, the potential of help has grown through new technologies. Voluntary help has many forms. Within this paper different categories of voluntary help are suggested. Those categories are based on properties like organizational structures, helping process, kind of prosocial behavior and many more. A focus is clearly on the organizational structure and motivational aspects of helper groups. Examples are given for each category. The categorization’s aim is to give a brief overview of possible properties a group of system users could have.
Durch den technischen Fortschritt in der Spracherkennung und -verarbeitung wird Sprache als Interaktionsform auch in Fahrzeugen, z.B. zur Bedienung von Infotainmentsystem, immer populärer. Die Steuerung von teilautomatisierten Fahrzeugen über Sprache ist bisher wenig erforscht. Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es unter der grundsätzlichen Annahme der Eignung von Sprachsteuerung für teilautonome Fahrzeuge, Nutzererwartungen und spezielle Anforderungen an eine Sprachsteuerung für die grundlegenden Fahrmanöver zu identifizieren. Aus den Ergebnissen eines Expertenworkshops und einer explorativen Videostudie werden Anforderungen und Sprachkommandos abgeleitet.
Automotive user interfaces and automated vehicle technology pose numerous challenges to support all diverse facets of user needs. These range from inexperienced, thrill-seeking, young novice drivers to elderly drivers with a mostly opposite set of preferences together with their natural limitations. To allow assessing the (hedonic) quality of automotive user interfaces and automated driving technology (i. e., UX) already during development, the proposed workshop is dedicated to the quest of finding objective, quantifiable criteria to describe future driving experiences. The workshop is intended for HCI, AutomotiveUI, and “Human Factors” researchers and practitioners as well for designers and developers. In adherence to the conference main topic “Interaktion – Verbindet – Alle”, this workshop calls in particular for contributions in the areas of human factors and ergonomics (user acceptance, trust, user experience, driving fun, natural user interfaces, etc.) with focus on hedonic quality and design of user experience to enhance the safety feeling in ADS.
