Behind the Glass: Driver Challenges and Opportunities for AR Automotive Applications

Visual Interface Evaluation for Wearables Datasets: Predicting the Subjective Augmented Vision Image QoE and QoS

“…For AR applications in particular, content is commonly displayed to provide context-dependent information. The goal is to positively modify human performance, e.g., for driving tasks [2], in the context of medical procedures [3,4] or for educational purposes [5]. The delivery of context-dependent network-delivered content to devices in near real time, however, represents a challenge and requires new paradigm considerations [6].…”

Image Quality in Augmented Binocular Vision: QoE Approximations with QoS and EEG

“…" An additional challenge for the display of any type of content using optical see-through devices stems from the overlay of the displayed content with that of reality. The outlined challenges for device operators in [18] for interactions, for example, are indicative of additional cognitive strains on the operator in specific situations. These could be explained through the dynamic interplay of real world background textures or color schemes and those provided by the optical see-through device.…”

Risky Gadgets to the Rescue - Reframing In-Car Technology Use as Task Engagement

“…We are exploring the translation of these AR concepts into the driving context, which will be enabled by in car 3D volumetric head up displays (HUD) or wind screen displays (e.g., Bark et al 2014) . However, applying gamification and AR concepts to the car is highly challenging due to conflicting game and road safety objectives (Diewald et al 2013) , as well as concerns related to distraction and cognitive load (Gabbard et al 2014) . Therefore, it requires careful considerations and design approaches, which we discuss in this paper.…”

“…AR enhances users' visual perception by adding contextual graphics (Gabbard et al 2014) . In the automotive realm, a major benefit of AR consists in presenting information without forcing drivers to take their eyes off the road.…”

“…Other challenges for AR include tracking technology, depth perception, focus distance, lighting, clutter and occlusion, over reliance, and trust (Gabbard et al 2014) . AR concepts therefore require careful considerations and design approaches.…”
