Call for Papers
8th Workshop Automotive HMI:
User Interface Research in the Age of New Digital Realities
colocated with MuC 2019 (http://muc2019.mensch-und-computer.de/)
September 8-11, 2019 | Hamburg
http://www.andreasriener.com/MuC2019WS/
========================================================================
Even though many aspects of automated driving have not yet become true,
many human factors issues have already been investigated. However,
recent discussions revealed common misconceptions in both research and
society about vehicle automation and the levels of automation levels.
This might be due to the fact that automated driving functions are mis-
named (cf. Autopilot) and that vehicles integrate functions at different
automation levels (L1 lane keeping assistant, L2/L3 traffic jam assist,
L4 valet parking). The user interface is one of the most critical issues
in the interaction between humans and vehicles - and diverging mental
models might be a major challenge here. Today's (manual) vehicles are
ill-suited for appropriate HMI testing for automated vehicles. Instead,
virtual or mixed reality might be a much better playground to test new
interaction concepts in an automated driving setting. In this workshop,
motivated by the conference theme, we will look into the potential of
new digital realities for concepts, visualizations, and experiments in
the car, e.g. by replacing all the windows with displays or transferring
the entire environment into a VR world. We are further interested in
discussing novel forms of interaction (speech, gaze-based interaction,
gestures) and information displays to support the driver/passenger.
Topics of Interest
==================
The main goal of the workshop is to discuss challenges and opportunities
in automotive user interface research, such as mental models, misuse of
terms, intransparency, etc. that might hinder or support the application
on a broader basis. In particular, we are highly interested in radical
innovative ideas for future HMI research in virtual/mixed VR/MR reality.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
* User interface concepts to foster trust and acceptance (for example,
transparency displays) for the different levels of automation
* Futuristic (virtual/mixed reality) concepts of shared control, vehicle
interior, and in-vehicle non-driving-related
* User experience design for automated vehicles
* Personalization of vehicle behavior and interfaces
* Approaches that support situation awareness through design
We welcome CONTRIBUTIONS from both academia and industry in either
GERMAN or ENGLISH language!
Submission Guidelines
=====================
Contributions are welcome in various forms including scientific papers
reporting user study results, theoretical concept papers, futuristic
visions or design concepts. We accept long (6-10 pages) and short papers
(2-4 pages) addressing one or multiple of the topics described above.
Templates for LaTeX/Word/Overleaf (same as for the main conference) can
be found at <http://muc2019.mensch-und-computer.de/proceedings-format>.
Papers have to be submitted on or before the submission deadline June 7,
2019 using ConfTool (https://www.conftool.com/muc2019/). Accepted papers
will be invited for presentation at the workshop and will be included in
the MuC 2019 workshop proceedings. Accompanying videos, demonstrators of
automotive HMI systems or other media are explicitly desired.
Important Dates
===============
* Submission deadline: June 7, 2019
* Notification of acceptance: July 5, 2019
* Final version due: July 12, 2019
* Workshop at MuC: Sunday, September 8, 2019 (tentative)
