Abstract:
Car user experience patterns are a systematic way to capture best practices and solutions to reoccurring problems in automotive interaction design. Combining empirical data, industry knowledge, and experts experience, they facilitate communication between scientists and industry stakeholders. In this paper, we present a newly generated set of eight car user experience patterns that describe answers to problems in automotive interaction design and engineering. These patterns are part of an ongoing project with the aim of providing a comprehensive, User Experience focused, pattern collection. The patterns presented in this paper mainly contain information on reducing potential distraction caused by the usage of in-vehicle information systems and on designing efficient in-car warning systems. They are the result of a novel approach combining scientific and industry know-how into very brief and domain-specific design problem solutions.
