La Experiencia de Usuario (UX) ha tenido un crecimiento en diferentes campos de la industria automotriz. Los vehículos se han convertido en un mundo lleno de oportunidades que le permiten al conductor sumergirse en un entorno de conectividad, comunicación, información y entretenimiento. Por lo tanto, es importante comenzar a darle al usuario un estudio más contextualizado, en donde no sea tratado como un individuo en general, sino más bien, por lo que realmente es, un conductor, con atributos y acciones propias de su rol en el vehículo. Este artículo presenta una definición subjetiva del término Driver eXperience (DX), y un conjunto de factores para tener en cuenta a fin de mejorar la relación vehículo-conductor, y así, brindarle al usuario una aproximación más comprensiva. Adicionalmente, se presenta un mapeo de la literatura de UX en la industria automotriz para entender la relevancia que puede tener introducir el término de DX.
In this paper, we present a set of nine user interface design patterns for in-vehicle infotainment systems centered on the content, interaction mode, style, shortcuts, and notifications of the system, which are built based on both theoretical support and an empirical pattern finding process. This empirical process consists in an exploratory test made with 10 users from an age range from 18 to 29 and with a minimum of 2 years of driving experience, who were asked to perform a set of 13 secondary tasks in the vehicle to identify recurrent problems, behavioral patterns, and best practices. The output of this exploratory test was used as the main data source for the design patterns consolidation. It is worth mentioning that the proposal of these patterns arose as an initiative to begin to consider factors that can affect the driver’s experience in the Latin American context. The set of design patterns has been validated via a content validation (as an exploratory study) by a panel of Latin American experts in the area of HCI and UX through the development of a prototype using the patterns as a tool for the redesign proposal of the infotainment systems tested during the empirical finding process.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
