THE WAY FORWARD •  to create an transparency and a co-­‐opera2ve approach where car, environment and driver act as agents. –  In the collabora2ve approach the drivers and the vehicle act as agents with the same goal, they exchange with the other agent their own strengths, weaknesses and (un-­‐) certainty, they show their limits of performance and their state and they give each other feedback. Just like a well func2oning team. GOAL Create the HMI that allows for a coopera2ve approach. What is the role of the driver in autonomous system? •  With full automated vehicles it is yet to define the role of the driver à Define the decision making process of the driver-­‐vehicle coopera2on. Take into account, –  Trust, complacency, locus of control, Mental workload, vigilance OUTCOME Knowledge (delivered as guidelines) on driver behaviour in the context of autonomous vehicle ACTIVITIES Simulator studies That is, what/when/how should informa2on be communicated? •  With fully automated vehicles it is yet to define how informa2on should be communicated àDefine the HMI that provide means for communica2on between the driver and the vehicle (two-­‐way) (mul2modal/hap2c/visual …) OUTCOME An HMI design based on behavioural research ACTIVITIES Usability ac2vi2es with simulator and demonstrator cars How to evaluate the efficiency and emo2onal aspects of the system? •  With fully automated vehicles is is yet to define what measures to use for system evalua2on à Define the measurements that captures the efficiency and emo2onal aspects of the system. OUTCOME A test method evalua2on tool box and measures regarding HMI for autonomous vehicles ACTIVIITES User experience and a`tudes The HAV project Crea3ng the possibili3es enabling innova3ve interac3on and collabora3on between the driver and the autonomous vehicle Contacts Staffan Davidsson staffan.davidsson@volvocars.com Maria Nilsson maria.nilsson@viktoria.se
