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.
System design for well-being needs an appropriate tool to help designers to determine relevant requirements that can help human well-being to flourish. Personas come as a simple yet powerful tool in the early development stage of the user interface design. Considering well-being determinants in the early design process provide benefits for both the user and the development team. Therefore, in this short paper, we performed a literature study to provide a conceptual model of well-being in personas and propose positive design interventions in personas’ creation process.
Automotive user interfaces and, in particular, automated vehicle technology pose a plenty of challenges to researchers, vehicle manufacturers, and third-party suppliers to support all diverse facets of user needs. To give an example, they emerge from the variation of different usergroups ranging from inexperienced, thrill-seeking young novice drivers to elderly drivers with all their natural limitations. To allow assessing the quality of automotive user interfaces and automated driving technology already during development and within virtual test processes, the proposed workshop is dedicated to the quest of finding objective, quantifiable quality criteria for describing 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 “Spielend einfach interagieren “, this workshop calls in particular for contributions in the area of human factors and ergonomics (user acceptance, trust, user experience, driving fun, natural user interfaces, etc.) and artificial intelligence (predictive HMIs, adaptive systems, intuitive interaction).
Rolling mills are continually improved and opti-mized by implementing innovative technology to decrease costs and scrap. Despite of the progressive automation and experience, some important process parameters can still not be determined with sufficient accuracy. As part of the research project PIREF, the velocity of the hot rolled rod shall be measured by using im-pedance analysis to estimate the volumetric flow rate of the mate-rial. For a high accuracy measurement of the impedance, a pow-erful VNA is used. To minimize errors in the measurement, caused by e.g. temperature drift, a correction of the measurement fre-quency is needed. This must be achieved without recalibration of the VNA to avoid faulty behavior of the online control. To solve this problem, an approach based on a polynomial regression is presented in this work.
Quality and dimensional accuracy of hot rolled steel rods depend on several process parameters. In fact many of these crucial parameters are not be sufficiently determined yet. By improving automation and process control costs and scrap of production can be decreased. As part of the research project PIREF, one of these parameters – the roll gap – is under investigation beside other topics. Before starting rolling, the roll gap is typically set to a fixed value according to the planed dimensions of the product, but the forces during the rolling of the rod cause an enlargement of the roll gap. In which way the rolls change their position and form shall be examined in our research project. Therefore a first experimental setup has been built up to determine the change in position of the rolls under applied force. This is realized by a pot core coil as sensor using impedance analysis. The first results are presented in this work as a proof-of-principle.
Enabling decentral collaborative innovation processes -a web based real time collaboration platform
(2018)
The main goal of this paper is to define a collaborative innovation process as well as a supporting tool. It is motivated through the increasing competition on global markets and the resultant propagation of decentralized projects with a high demand of innovative collaboration in global contexts. It bases on a project accomplished by the author group. A detailed literature review and the action design research methodology of the project led to an enhanced process model for decentral collaborative innovation processes and a basic realization of a browser based real time tool to enable these processes.The initial evaluation in a practical distributed setting has shown that the created tool is a useful way to support collaborative innovation processes.
The adoption of Open Educational Resources (OER) can support collaboration and knowledge sharing. One of the main areas of the usage OER is the internationalization, i.e., the use in a global context. However, the globally distributed co-creation of digital materials is still low. Therefore, we identify essential barriers, in particular for co-authoring of OER in global environments. We use a design science research method to introduce a barrier framework for co-authoring OER in global settings and propose a wellbeing-based system design constructed from the barrier framework for OER co-authoring tool. We describe how positive computing concepts can be used to overcome barriers, emphasizing design that promotes the author's sense of competence, relatedness, and autonomy.
A self-driving car that operates on the SAE automation level 3 or 4 can navigate through different traffic conditions without human input. If such a system is on its operating limits, it will emit a takeover request before shutting down. This request will likely generate a physical response of the driver. Our goal is to shed light on the stress perception of drivers in various scenarios. To this end, we have carried out a feasibility study for preparation. Two subjects drove an autonomous vehicle and during the ride ECG signals were recorded, and afterwards evaluated. Unfortunately, the stress reaction to takeover requests could not be investigated, due to the poor function of the autonomous driving mode from the vehicle, however the reaction to autopilot misconduct without warning to the driver could be investigated instead.
