Joint workshop on Natural UI's and Socially-inspired Mobility Services

Description

This workshop will explore the emerging themes of autonomous driving, social driving and novel user interface approaches. The aim being to define the future landscape for research within and across each these areas. It aims to collect different, radical, innovative, versatile and engaging works that challenge or re-imagine human interactions in today’s automobile space. It will seek to challenge existing thinking by exploring what is possible both now and by the time the autonomous vehicle is a standard feature of our roads. Participants will be encouraged to suggest alternative concepts whether low fidelity, high fidelity, or both. Especially encouraged will be works that are experiential and can be demonstrated hands on. The workshop will be an opportunity to re-shape the conversation of automobile technology by introducing the community to a new way of thinking. A further goal of this workshop is to continue the discussion and exploration of the design space of natural multi-modal automotive user interfaces and to continue the fruitful discussions held at the first two workshops on Automotive Natural User Interfaces at AutomotiveUI 2011 and 2012 [8], [9]. We would like to analyze where and how new interaction techniques can be integrated into the car – for manual and (semi-) autonomous driving situations.
