Abstract

New interaction and information concepts for car drivers are in common evaluated in driving simulators. Systems like these often require a lot of work to realize predefined scenarios.
What about taking real traffic scenarios and putting them into simulated environments?
With a suitable system, ergonomic engineers can request car drivers to create a specific traffic scenario, which for instance would cause a driver to react in a certain way. Analysis of those szenarios opens up a new opportunity for the design of rules reflecting human behaviour.
This project provides a platform for these issues:

  • Sensor data is used as well as AR and tracking based data to generate immersive szenarios
  • Driver behaviour is capturable for objective analysis
  • Interactive table-top development of scenarios
  • Multi-channel configurable immersive presentation from different viewpoints
