Currently, car assistant systems mainly try to prevent accidents. Increasing built-in car technology also extends the potential applications in vehicles. Future cars might have virtual windshields that augment the traffic or individual virtual assistants interacting with the user. In this paper, we explore the potential of an assistant system that helps the car’s occupants to calm down and reduce stress when they experience an accident in front of them. We present requirements from a discussion (N= 11) and derive a system design from them. Further, we test the system design in a video-based simulator study (N= 43). Our results indicate that an accident support system increases perceived control and trust and helps to calm down the user.
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.
The task of object detection in the automotive sector can be performed by evaluating various
sensor data. The evaluation of LiDAR data for the detection of objects is a special challenge for
which systems with neural networks can be used. These neural networks are trained by means of a
data set. If you want to use the net with your own recordings or another data set, it is important
to know how well these systems work in combination with data from another sensor. This allows
the results to be estimated in advance and compared with the results of previous experiments.
In this work the sensor dependence of a LiDAR based object recognition with neural networks
will be analysed. The detector used in this work is PointRCNN [1], which was designed for the
KITTI dataset [2]. To check the sensor dependency, the ’AEV Autonomous Driving Dataset’
(A2D2) dataset [3] was selected as a further dataset. After an introduction to PointRCNN and its
functionality, the data of both datasets are analysed. Then the data of the second dataset will be
ported into the format of the KITTI dataset so that they can be used with PointRCNN. Through
experiments with varying combinations of training and validation data it shall be investigated to
what extent trained models can be transferred to other sensor data or datasets. Therefore, it shall
be investigated how strong the dependence of the detector (PointRCNN) on the used sensors is.
The results show that PointRCNN can be evaluated with a different dataset than the training
dataset while still being able to detect objects. The point density of the datasets plays a decisive
role for the quality of the detection. Therefore it can be said that PointRCNN has a sensor
dependency that varies with the nature of the point cloud and its density.

Das Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit ist es, die Eignung von MeshLab in einem Reverse-Engineering-Projekt zu überprüfen. Dazu wurden vor Beginn sechs Kriterien aufgestellt, auf die MeshLab untersucht wird. Das Ergebnis zeigt, dass MeshLab fünf von sechs Kriterien erfüllt und somit für einen Einsatz geeignet ist.
MeshLab ist ein Teil der Datenaufbereitung des Reverse Engineering. Es ist ein kostenloses Programm und somit in Kombination mit einem günstigen Scanner für einen Einsatz in Reverse-Engineering-Projekten mit einem geringen Kostenaufwand einsetzbar.
The aim of this bachelor thesis is to verify the suitability of MeshLab in a Reverse-Engineering-Project. Before the beginning six criterias were set up on which MeshLab is examined. The result shows that MeshLab fulfills five of six criterias and is therefore suitable for use.
MeshLab is a part of the data preparation from the Reverse Engineering. It is a free programm and in combination with a cheap scanner, it can be used in a Revere-Engineering-Project with a low Budget.
Learning the German language is one of the most critical challenges for refugee children in Germany. It is a prerequisite to allow communication and integration into the educational system. To solve the underlying problem, we conceptualized a set of principles for the design of language learning systems to support collaboration between teachers and refugee children, using a Design Science Research approach. The proposed design principles offer functional and non-functional requirements of systems, including the integration of open educational resources, different media types to develop visual and audio narratives that can be linked to the cultural and social background. This study also illustrates the use of the proposed design principles by providing a working prototype of a learning system. In this, refugee children can learn the language collaboratively and with freely accessible learning resources. Furthermore, we discuss the proposed design principles with various socio-technical aspects of the well-being determinants to promote a positive system design for different cultural and generational settings. Overall, despite some limitations, the implemented design principles can optimize the potential of open educational resources for the research context and derive further recommendations for further research.
The present bachelor theses discusses the creation process of a framework for the sys-tematic analysis of twitter posts regarding their sentiment. The result is an application, which links and uses the covered theoretical approaches for text classification.
How to Increase Automated Vehicles’ Acceptance through In-Vehicle Interaction Design: A Review
(2020)
Automated vehicles (AVs) are on the edge of being available on the mass market. Research often focuses on technical aspects of automation, such as computer vision, sensing, or artificial intelligence. Nevertheless, researchers also identified several challenges from a human perspective that need to be considered for a successful introduction of these technologies. In this paper, we first analyze human needs and system acceptance in the context of AVs. Then, based on a literature review, we provide a summary of current research on in-car driver-vehicle interaction and related human factor issues. This work helps researchers, designers, and practitioners to get an overview of the current state of the art.
