Artificial Intelligence Driven Human-Machine Collaboration Scenarios in Virtual Reality (Poster)
(2018)
RELEVANCE & RESEARCH QUESTION: Currently the effectiveness of Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) systems as practice teaching methods are virtually uncharted. The proof that these systems can provide the same or better learning outcomes than a text instructed practical task could represent a significant benefit for educational activities. METHODS & DATA: To fathom the effectiveness, an experimental study with the three conditions (VR, AR and a real setup) were used to teach participant how to assemble a standard computer. Each condition was divided into two parts: part one in which participants were confronted with their specific scenario, part two in which participants had to go through a real practice after one week. The learning outcome was determined by the designation of hardware parts, a quiz that queried their function and the correct assembling of the components in addition to needed time. Apart from the mere performance, the acceptance of such application in academic context and difference in evaluation by men and women were of interest. RESULTS: Results concerning the Learning Outcome showed that participants from the VR condition outperformed those learned from the real setup ((M=10.0, SD=0.0) [virtual reality] vs. (M=8.95, SD=1.27) [control]). Furthermore, results from the assembling duration assessment demonstrated that VR Group Participants completed their tasks 6.62% faster than the control group. Regarding the identification of Hardware Parts, both groups scored a significant improvement during the post condition compared to the first test run, indicating a learning progress. However, due to the VR group achieving a better outcome in average answers and a more significant difference between the trials, the results indicate a better performance by participants assigned to the VR condition. ADDED VALUE: The results revealed that VR and AR systems could exceed text-based approach in terms of learning outcome performance. The effectiveness of the systems implicates a major benefit for the educational landscape, as learning content that is not realizable in terms of cost, distance or logistics could be designed as an immersive and engaging experience.
Today usually every student owns a reasonably powerful mobile device that allows to be integrated in scenarios. One of the drawbacks of the fast evolution of reasonably powerful devices, is the
heterogeneity of that these kind of devices us ually bring with them. This paper provides an overview how rich mobile learning scenarios can be implemented platform independent on the basis of HTML5 and JavaScript. The paper presents a mobile learning application based on the principles of Situated Lea
rning entirely developed in HTML5. The paper also presents the results of tests performed with the application which were aimed at finding out the difference in performance users perceived when compared with the native desktop version of the
application and the added value that mobility introduces in learning activities.
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.
Applications and research efforts in Mobile Learning constitute a growing field in the area of Technology Enhanced Learning. However, despite a permanent increase of mobile internet accessibility and availability of mobile devices over the past years, a mobile learning environment that is easy to use, widely accepted by teachers and learners, uses widespread off-the-shelf software, and that covers various application scenarios and mobile devices, is not yet available. In this paper, we address this issue by presenting an approach and technical framework called "Mobile Contributions" ("MoCo"). MoCo supports learners to create and send contributions through various channels (including third-party solutions like Twitter, SMS and Facebook), which are collected and stored in a central repository for processing, filtering and visualization on a shared display. A set of different learning and teaching scenarios that can be realized with MoCo are described along with first experiences and insights gained from qualitative and quantitative evaluation.
This paper presents an approach towards a mobile learning environment, which is flexible in terms of supported scenarios, supported devices and input channels. The approach makes use of existing and commonly used channels like SMS, Twitter or Face book to increase acceptance and ease-of-use of mobile devices in learning scenarios. Envisaged application scenarios are described along with technical details for their realization.
Im vorliegenden Beitrag wird das Phasen-Differenz-Verfahren zur Frequenzmessung der durch Rauschen gestörten Signale vorgestellt. Es wird gezeigt, dass Frequenzausreißer bei Anwendungen dieses Verfahrens entstehen, auch wenn das Signal-zu-Rausch-Verhältnis ausreichend groß ist. Die Ursachen der Frequenzausreißer werden analysiert. Zur Korrektur wird ein Lösungsansatz vorgeschlagen. Im Vergleich mit anderen Verfahren kann das verbesserte Phasen-Differenz-Verfahren die Frequenz der durch Rauschen gestörten Signale mit größerer Genauigkeit und vertretbarem Rechenaufwand berechnen.
Positive Computing umfasst Design, Realisierung und Bewertung von Anwendungssystemen und deren Einflüsse mit dem Ziel, Lebensqualität und Wohlbefinden von Menschen zu verbessern und sie bei der Entfaltung ihrer Potenziale zu unterstützen. Das Institut Positive Computing (IPCo) an der Hochschule Ruhr West soll dieses neue Paradigma in einem inter- und transdisziplinären Ansatz erschließen, untersuchen und umsetzen. Das Paradigma ist anwendbar auf nahezu alle Bereiche des privaten und beruflichen Lebens. Die Forschung des IPCo fokussiert zunächst jedoch auf die positive Nutzung von Informations- und Kommunikationstechnologien (IKT) für generationenübergreifende Herausforderungen. Hierzu sollen technologische Lösungen unter kontinuierlicher Einbeziehung menschlicher Bedürfnisse und sozialer Fragestellungen erarbeitet
werden.
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.
For highly automated vehicles (AVs), new interaction concepts need to be developed. Even in AVs, the driver might want to intervene and override the automation from time to time. To create the possibility of control, we explore vehicle control through maneuver-based interventions (MBI). Thereby, we focus on explicit, contact-less interaction, which could be beneficial in future AV designs, where the driver is not necessarily bound to classical controls. We propose a set of freehand gestures and keywords for voice control derived in a user-centered design process. Further, we discuss properties, applicability and user impressions of both interaction modalities. Voice control seems to be an efficient way to select a maneuver and free-hand gestures could be used, if voice channel is blocked, e.g., through conversation with passengers.
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.
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.
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.
Human emotion detection in automated vehicles helps to improve comfort and safety. Research in the automotive domain focuses a lot on sensing drivers' drowsiness and aggression. We present a new form of implicit driver-vehicle cooperation, where emotion detection is integrated into an automated vehicle's decision-making process. Constant evaluation of the driver's reaction to vehicle behavior allows us to revise decisions and helps to increase the safety of future automated vehicles.
Self-driving cars will relief the human from the driving task. Nevertheless, the human might want to intervene in the driving process and thus needs the possibility to control the car. Switching back to fully manual controls is uncomfortable once being passive and engaging in non-driving-related activities. A more comfortable way is controlling the car with elemental maneuvers (e.g., "turn left" or "stop"). Whereas touch interaction concepts exist, contactless interaction through voice and mid-air gestures has not yet been explored for maneuver-based car control. In this paper, we, therefore, compare the general eligibility of voice and mid-air gesture with touch interaction as the primary maneuver selection mechanism in a driving simulator study. Our results show high usability for all modalities. Contactless interaction leads to a more positive emotional perception of the interaction, yet mid-air gestures lead to higher task load. Overall, voice and touch control are preferred over mid-air gestures by most users.
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.
The way we communicate with autonomous cars will fundamentally change as soon as manual input is no longer required as back-up for the autonomous system. Maneuver-based driving is a potential way to allow still the user to intervene with the autonomous car to communicate requests such as stopping at the next parking lot. In this work, we highlight different research questions that still need to be explored to gain insights into how such control can be realized in the future.

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.
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.
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.
Der Einsatz von virtuellen Servern im LDS NRW erfolgte bisher unter dem Blickwinkel der Konsolidierung von einfachen und sehr einfachen Systemen, die keine dedizierte Serversystemtechnik benötigten.
Mittlerweile bietet VMware Funktionalitäten, die neben dem Konsolidierungsgedanken hoch interessante Möglichkeiten für vielfältigste, individuelle Kundenanforderungen bieten. Dies reicht von flexiblen, preiswerten und einfachen
Systemen bis hin zu Serverplattformen mit hohen Ansprüchen an Performance und Verfügbarkeit.
The presented work formulates an framework in which early prediction of drivers lane change behavior is realized. We aim to build a representation of drivers lane change behavior in order to recognize and to predict driver's intentions as a first step towards a realistic driver model. In the test bed of the Institute of Neuroinformatik, based on the traffic simulator NISYS TRS 1, 10 individuals have driven in the experiments and they performed more then 150 lane change maneuvers. Lane-offset, distance to the front car and time to contact, were recorded. The acquired data was used to train - in parallel- a recurrent neural network, a feed forward neural network and a set of support vector machines. In the followed test drives the system was able of performing a lane change prediction time of 1.5 sec beforehand. The proposed approach describes a framework for lane-change detection and prediction, which will serve as a prerequisite for a successful driver model.
In the presented work we compare machine learning techniques in the context of lane change behavior performed by humans in a semi-naturalistic simulated environment. We evaluate different learning approaches using differing feature combinations in order to identify appropriate feature, best feature combination, and the most appropriate machine learning technique for the described task. Based on the data acquired from human drivers in the traffic simulator NISYS TRS 1 , we trained a recurrent neural network, a feed forward neural network and a set of support vector machines. In the followed test drives the system was able to predict lane changes up to 1.5 sec in beforehand.

Die Entwicklung von vollautomatisierten Fahrzeugen wird in der gesellschaftlichen Diskussion immer präsenter. Wichtig für die Durchsetzung und verbreitete Nutzung dieser technischer Neuerungen ist jedoch vor allem die Akzeptanz der Bevölkerung – in diesem Fall nicht nur die der potenziellen KäuferInnen sondern auch die der übrigen Verkehrs-teilnehmenden. Vorgestellt wird eine explorative Online-Studie zur Akzeptanz von auto-nomen Fahren basierend auf quantitativen und qualitativen Daten einer Stichprobe von N = 89. Die Ergebnisse zeigen unter anderem eine geringe Vertrautheit mit dem Thema, ein vergleichsweise ausgeprägtes Vertrauen aber eine geringe Nutzungsabsicht.
Öffentliche Diskussionen zum autonomen Fahren zeigen einen hohen Anspruch, dass die Algorithmen in kritischen Fällen Entscheidungen nach ethischen Kriterien fällen. Diese für die Vielzahl von denkbaren Verkehrssituationen so zu erfassen, dass sie den Vorstellungen eines größten Teils der Bevölkerung entspricht, stellt eine große methodische Herausforderung dar. In dieser Arbeit wird untersucht, in wie weit eine überlegte Entscheidung mit dem Verhalten in einem Fahrsimulator übereinstimmt. Dabei wird bei einem großen Teil der Teilnehmer:innen ein Widerspruch zwischen geäußertem beabsichtigtem Handeln und tatsächlichem Handeln offenbar.
Women are still underrepresented at the highest management levels. The think-manager-think-male phenomenon suggests that leadership is associated with male rather than female attributes. Although styling has been shown to influence the evaluation of women's leadership abilities, the relevant specific features have been left remarkably unaddressed. In a 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 (skirt/pants, with/without jewelry, loose hair/braid, with/without makeup) between-subjects design, 354 participants evaluated a woman in a photograph. Women with makeup, pants, or with jewelry were rated as more competent than women without makeup, with skirts, or without jewelry. A combination of loose hair and no makeup was perceived as warmest, and women with loose hair were more likely to be hired than those with braids. In sum, even subtle changes in styling have a strong impact on how women's leadership abilities are evaluated.
Massive open online courses (MOOCs) become more and more popular. These course formats are typically highly flexible and attract large groups of learners from heterogeneous backgrounds. So far research in this area concentrating on success factors for low dropout rates and high satisfaction on the side of the learners in MOOCs is scarce. In this chapter, we describe experiences of a large online course offered to students of two large German universities. Based on theory drawn from a social psychological perspective on the relevance of social interaction for learning, we describe the background, structure, and specific elements of the MOOC-like course. We outline evaluation results of both small group collaboration (in workshops) and mass interaction (via forum and wiki usage) as well as results of the general evaluation of the overall course concept. We argue that the specific mixture of small and large group interaction as well as teacher- and learner-generated content is especially promising with regard to satisfaction, learning outcomes, and course completion rates.
With the spread of mobile devices among both, men and women, app-based games also become more popular. While traditionally, digital games are more famous among men, women seem to spend more time and money on mobile gaming. There are a lot of open questions with regard to women and gaming in general; research on gender differences in app-based mobile gaming is almost nonexistent. Taking an exploratory perspective, our study investigates gender differences in general usage patterns, attachment towards the game and motivational differences for choosing to play the famous QuizClash app. Also, we identify differences in reported and actual performance in specific categories and capture anticipation of success as well as likeliness of choosing specific knowledge categories depending on the opponents’ performance profile.
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.
Checking wind turbines for damage is a common problem for operators of wind parks, as regular inspections are legally required in many countries and prevention is economically viable. While some of the common forms of damage are easily visible on the surface, structural problems can remain invisible for years before they eventually result in catastrophic failure of a rotor blade. Common forms of testing fibre composite parts like ultrasonic testing or X-ray tests are impractical due to the large dimensions of wind turbine components and their limited accessibility for any short-range methods. Active thermographic inspection of wind turbines is a promising approach to testing for structural flaws beneath the surface of rotor blades. As part of an ongoing research project, a setup for testing the general viability of this method was built and used to compare different thermographic cameras. A sample cut from a discarded rotor blade was modified to emulate structural damage. The results are promising for the development of a cost effective on-site testing system.
Das kEFIR‐Projekt untersucht die praktische Anwendung von thermographischen Verfahren zur Analyse der strukturellen Integrität von Windkraftrotorblättern. Das Projekt entstand in Zusammenarbeit der Hochschule Ruhr West (HRW) mit der IQbis Consulting GmbH im Rahmen eines ZIM‐Förderprojekts des Bundesministeriums für Wirtschaft und Energie (BMWi). Hintergrund ist die zunehmende Anzahl von Windkraftanlagen (WKA) und der somit steigende Wartungsaufwand. Um einen reibungslosen Betrieb dieser Anlagen zu gewährleisten und damit den besonderen Anforderungen an die Verfügbarkeit energieerzeugender Anlagen sicherzustellen, ist ein Bedarf an qualitativ hochwertigen Fehleranalysesystemen für im Betrieb befindlicher WKA von besonderer Bedeutung. Erfahrungsgemäß ist der Zeitaufwand für diese Inspektionen mit aktuellen Mitteln sehr groß und wird üblicherweise mit mehreren Arbeitstagen kalkuliert. Die Reproduzierbarkeit der gewonnenen Daten ist bei den derzeitigen Methoden meist nicht gewährleistet. Um frühzeitig auf Instabilitäten oder Schäden in den Rotorblättern einer WKA aufmerksam zu werden, ist die Entwicklung eines schnellen und qualitativ hoch wertigen Fehleranalysesystems von zentraler Bedeutung. Ein Forschungsschwerpunkt in diesem Zusammenhang ist die Entwicklung von geeigneten bildgebenden und berührungslosen Verfahren, welche bei den Inspektionen eingesetzt werden können. Beispielsweise erlaubt der Einsatz thermographischer Sensoren eine Analyse nicht nur der Rotorblattoberfläche, sondern auch ihrer inneren Struktur. Weiterhin ist aufgrund des schnell wachsenden Marktes bei unbemannten Luftfahrzeugen, wie beispielsweise positionsstabiler Quatrocoptersysteme, eine zusätzliche Möglichkeit gegeben, die Inspektion von Windenergieanlagen mit Hilfe mobiler, kompakter und fliegender Analysesysteme zu unterstützen.
Das CameraFramework wurde entwickelt, um mittels Socket-Kommunikation [1] als Middleware zwischen verschiedenen Kamerainstanzen mit eigenen Kameratreibern und Clienten zu fungieren. Über diesen Kommunikationsweg ist es möglich Clienten nicht nur lokal, sondern auch über das Netzwerk mit Kameradaten zu versorgen. Um neue Kameras mit dem Framework nutzen zu können, muss die Implementierung gewissen Regeln folgen, was durch ein vorgegebenes Basis-Interface (abstrakte Basis-Klasse in C++ [2]) fast vollständig sichergestellt ist. Neue Kameras werden zur Laufzeit über dynamische Bibliotheken geladen. Parameter für Kameras sind über ein XML-File [3] einzustellen. Funktionen zur Übergabe von neuen Kameradaten sind implementiert und müssen durch den Entwickler der einzelnen Kamerainterfaces aufgerufen werden.
Die Zuordnung von Kameradaten zum passenden Nutzer übernimmt das Framework. Jeder Clienterhält seinen eigenen konfigurierbaren Ringbuffer [4] um unabhängig von anderen Nutzern und Kameras zu sein. Die Aufgaben des Frameworks sind auf verschiedene Module, wie in Abbildung 1 dargestellt, aufgeteilt.
Wissensmanagement (WM) und IT-gestütztes Lernen sind gerade in kleinen Behörden der Öffentlichen Verwaltung (ÖV), wie z.B. in ländlichen
Gemeinden, noch ausbaufähig. Am Beispiel des EU-Projekts EAGLE werden
Projektergebnisse als Verbesserungsansätze für ein arbeitsprozessorientiertes, IT-gestütztes Lernen vorgestellt. Neuartige Plattform-Features und ihr ÖV-spezifischer Nutzen werden erläutert. Die Ergebnisse der Plattformvalidierung werden vorgestellt. Ferner werden Vorschläge gemacht, wie die Ergebnisse aus EAGLE mit WM und weiteren Wissensquellen der ÖV, wie z.B. der Registratur, zu einem Gesamtkonzept mit bereits vorhandenen Fortbildungs- und WM-Ansätzen verbunden werden können.
Kaum ein sicherheitskritisches System hat eine so große Verbreitung bei Privatpersonen gefunden wie das Automobil. Seit seiner Erfindung hat es eine rasante Weiterentwicklung erfahren, von einer rein mechanischen Maschine zu einem System, bei dem heute die meisten Innovationen auf elektronischen Komponenten basieren. Dazu zählen insbesondere Fahrerassistenzsysteme, die helfen sollen, komfortabler und sicherer am Ziel der Fahrt anzukommen. Wo einst z. B. der Tempomat einfach über die Einstellung einer festen Geschwindigkeit gesteuert wurde, sind heute bereits einzelne Systeme deutlich umfangreicher und das Zusammenspiel longitudinaler und lateraler Automatisierung führt zu einem Anstieg der Komplexität. Die sichere Bedienung des Fahrzeugs muss jedoch im Vordergrund stehen, kann ein Fehler doch schnell bis hin zu tödliche Folgen haben. In diesem Kapitel werden psychologische Grundlagen vorgestellt und auf die Herausforderungen für die Entwicklung von HMIs im Fahrzeug angewandt. Konkrete Umsetzungen von aktuellen Fahrzeugen bis hin zu Forschungsarbeiten werden betrachtet, ebenso wird auf den Entwicklungsprozess und Nutzerstudien eingegangen.
