Abstract
The advancement of Level 3 and Level 4 vehicle autonomy transforms the relationship between the driver and their car. By allowing the vehicle to operate independently without human maneuver, this technology liberates us from steering and places us as decision-makers. Simply stating our desired destination is necessary to set the car in motion.
However, aside from our ambitious vision of the L3 and L4 automation, an effective interface built for future human-vehicle interaction still needs to be explored. Our activities in the car will drastically change, making current modern vehicle interfaces inadequate for the demands of L3 and L4 vehicles. Consequently, there is a need for innovative solutions that align with the demands of these advanced autonomous vehicles.
Auto Sphere, a human-vehicle interface designed for self-driving cars, has been conceived, enabling drivers to deliver commands as decision-makers across various commuting environments effectively. This report covers the background introduction, user study, user test, interface design process, and outcome.
