This project involves the development of a model-based method for the evaluation of design concepts for In-Vehicle Information Systems (IVISs). The evaluation method is aimed specifically at assessing the usability of the Human Machine Interface (HMI) associated with these systems. It is aimed at the very early stages of design and is intended to provide designers with a quick and easy method o...

Human–machine-interaction studies complex communication and interaction principles between people and computers. HMI research is concerned with a wide field of related topcis covering the realisation, evaluation of interactive machine and computing systems. It furthermore covers knowledge representation, displaying techniques, signal processing, pattern recognition, human factors, haptics and r...

Vision constitutes a significant part of information input for Human Machine Interaction (HMI), and the understanding of gaze characteristics such as stability, focus, and duration is promising to design a good User Interface (UI). This paper defines HMI events as UI design factors and identifies its correlation with users’ feedback, i.e. Gaze Metrics (GM) and affect. The observation of the tri...

This study aims to design practical learning media. The Human Machine Interface (HMI) module consists of a monitor display control menus, PLC devices, and input-output devices. the exemplary HMI is needed provide required information user. research method used in this uses experimental methods program on trainer module. From results, it can conclude that use Omron CP1E NA20DRA PLC-Based system ...

Das Smartphone ist heute aus dem Alltag nicht mehr wegzudenken. Autofahrer wollen ihre vom Smartphone bekannten Dienste auch im Fahrzeug über das HMI nutzen können. Die Automobilhersteller integrieren daher immer mehr dieser Dienste in die Fahrzeuge, dennoch wird häufig auf das Smartphone zurückgegriffen. Dieser Artikel befasst sich mit der Idee eines kontextsensitiven HMI-Systems, welches den ...

In this paper, an adaptive human-machine interaction (HMI) method that is based on surface electromyography (sEMG) signals is proposed for the hands-free control of an intelligent wheelchair. sEMG signals generated by the facial movements are obtained by a convenient dry electrodes sensing device. After the signals features are extracted from the autoregressive model, control data samples are u...

This work presents the design and set-up of a virtual reality driving simulator for development and evaluation of future automotive HMI concepts. The Oculus Rift based virtual reality driving simulation described in this work is an immersive 3D virtual reality simulator, which gives the driver a near-realistic driving experience. Oculus Rift is a low-latency 360° head tracking virtual reality h...

Human Machine Interfaces (HMIs) are the communication devices between invehicle applications and the driver. Frequently, independent HMIs are used for different applications which may cause information overload situations at the driver. Hence, a common HMI design that determines the application interface with an HMI Manager that provides rules for prioritizing information from different applica...

The integration of more and more functionality into the human machine interface (HMI) of vehicles increases the complexity of device handling. Thus optimal use of different human sensory channels is an approach to simplify the interaction with in-car devices. This way the user convenience increases as much as distraction may decrease. In this paper a videobased realtime hand gesture recognition...

A design method for an electronic glove interface which is an alternative to the traditional methods for the human-machine interaction (HMI) is presented, in this work.
