This workshop will combine two emerging fields within the CHI community:
User Experience (UX) and HCI in the context Automotive. It will bring
together UX experts, who are willing to adapt the understanding of UX
(UX models) and discuss UX factors for the specific characteristics of

well as from an industrial perspective.

TOPICS
Topics include, but are not limited to:
* Understanding of UX in the automotive context in a holistic way
* Looking into different sub-domains: the driver, the front seat, the

* Researching the relevance of traditional UX factors in the automotive
context and identification of new UX factors especially relevant for the car
* Contextual analysis and evaluation methods for UX in the automotive
context
* Discussion of car laboratory setups in comparison to in-situ methods
for car UX research
* Automotive user interface frameworks and toolkits
* New concepts for in-car user interfaces increasing UX and supporting
safety
* Experience Design in the car
* Looking into the future: the ubiquitous car in a mobile society
