Abstract:
In this paper, we propose a low cost, laboratory based testing framework for in-vehicle interfaces. Exemplified by a comparison between an auditory interface, a Head-up display, and a combination of both we show how task completion times, driving penalty points, mental workload, and subjective user evaluations of the interfaces can be collected through different logging systems and user questionnaires. The driving simulator used in the experiment enables the simulation of varying traffic conditions as well as different driving scenarios including a highway and a busy city center. Only some preliminary results are reported in this paper.
