Emotion GaRage Vol. IV:
Creating Empathic In-Vehicle Interfaces with Generative AIs for Automated Vehicle Contexts
AutomotiveUI '23, Ingolstadt, Germany
Here is a link to our workshop Presentation Slides.
This workshop aims to design advanced empathic user interfaces for in-vehicle displays. By merging the expertise of academia and industry, we will engage in a collaborative session to brainstorm driving scenarios that may arise in high-level automated vehicles (SAE level 3 or higher) and discuss the emotions drivers may experience in those situations. Based on this discussion, we will develop intervention methods using model-based approaches and AI tools. Incorporating model-based approaches for understanding human emotion regulation, it seeks to enhance the user-vehicle interaction. A unique aspect of this workshop is the integration of generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools, such as ChatGPT or DALL·E. The workshop will explore generative AI's potential in crafting contextual responses and its impact on user experience and interface design. The anticipated outcome includes practical prototypes of affective user interfaces and insights on the role of AI in designing human-machine interactions. Through this workshop, we hope to contribute to making automated driving more accessible and enjoyable.
In this workshop, we will do ...
Step 1
Step 2
Step 3
The overarching goal of this workshop is to facilitate the design and development of an advanced affective in-vehicle user interface.
Through this workshop, we anticipate:
Generate ideas for in-vehicle situations and respective emotional responses of drivers or passengers in highly automated vehicles.
Develop empathic intervention methods using model-based (e.g., sensory or cognitive) approaches to enhance drivers’ driving experience.
Create practical prototypes of empathic user interfaces to provide participants with a tangible understanding of the design process and potential solutions.
Facilitate discussions and foster hands-on experience with potential usefulness of the integration of generative AI tools for designing human-machine interaction.
A catalog of these points and the results of the rapid prototyping activity will be compiled. Based on a qualitative analysis of insights gained from the workshop session, a report will be prepared and presented at the upcoming AutomotiveUI conference.
