Is Now A Good Time? An Empirical Study of Vehicle-Driver Communication Timing

Explore an empirical study on vehicle-driver communication timing presented at the ACM CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems. Delve into the research conducted by Rob Semmens, Nikolas Martelaro, Pushyami Kaveti, Simon Stent, and Wendy Ju, examining the optimal moments for in-vehicle systems to interact with drivers. Learn about the methodology involving 63 drivers and 2,734 responses, analyzing automotive and video data to determine appropriate interruption times. Discover insights on designing systems that minimize risks while maximizing interaction opportunities, considering factors such as merging into traffic and wrong turns. Gain understanding of machine learning applications in predicting suitable communication timing and the overall performance of the study's findings. Conclude with a summary and question session, enhancing your knowledge of human-computer interaction in automotive contexts.
