Automotive Usability: Human Computer Interaction in the Vehicle
نویسندگان
چکیده
Computer has become the most significant helper and tool around the world. It is used in all kinds of electronic devices and improves their usability much. Automobile is a great example in this topic to show how computer changes the way people interact with an item. During the past decades, more and more mechanical devices in automobile are replaced by electrical substitutions and the interface is evolved towards better user friendly experience. Among these changes, some make the automobile itself easier to acquaint and operate, like auto-transmission and power window/seat; some make driving safer for drivers and passengers, which we could see from safe belt alert light and parking sensors; and some make the experience on the road a funnier and comfortable thing rather than operating a frosty machine, like audio system, cruise control and navigation device. In all, intelligent interfaces accompanied intelligent automobile is the great trend in the near future, and which would bring human experience on the way to a brand new standard. Keywords-automobile; usability; automation; safety; entertainment; networking

This paper describes the primary and secondary driving task together with Human Machine Interface (HMI) trends and issues which are driving automotive user interface designers to consider hand gesture recognition as a realistic alternative for user controls. A number of hand gesture recognition technologies and applications for Human Vehicle Interaction (HVI) are also discussed including a summ...
متن کاملToward Mobile Eye-Based Human-Computer Interaction
E ye-based human-computer interaction (HCI) goes back at least to the early 1990s. Controlling a computer using the eyes traditionally meant extracting information from the gaze—that is, what a person was looking at. In an early work, Robert Jacob investigated gaze as an input modality for desktop computing.1 He discussed some of the human factors and technical aspects of performing common task...
