Feel the Movement - Real Motion Influences Responses to Take-over Requests in Highly Automated Vehicles

Explore a 20-minute conference talk from the ACM CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems that investigates the impact of real motion on driver responses to take-over requests (TORs) in highly automated vehicles. Discover how researchers used a moving-base driving simulator to examine the role of motion as a crucial information source for users engaged in non-driving tasks. Learn about the study's findings, which reveal that user responses to TORs vary depending on road context when motion is present. Understand the implications for TOR design, emphasizing the importance of road context awareness to accommodate natural user responses. Gain insights into how urgent cues elicit faster responses on straight roads but slower responses on curved roads compared to non-urgent cues. Delve into the research that challenges previous assumptions about TOR evaluations in non-moving simulators and highlights the significance of incorporating motion in automated vehicle interface design.
