ABSTRACT
Ambient lighting systems have been introduced by several manufacturers to increase the driver's comfort. Also, some works proposed warning systems based on light displays. Expanding on those works, we are searching for designs of Lumicons (i.e. light patterns) that can not only warn drivers in critical situations but also keep them informed in a non-distracting way. We present first ideas for Lumicons for a given scenario coming from a participatory design process.

Supporting lane change decisions with ambient light
AutomotiveUI '15: Proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Automotive User Interfaces and Interactive Vehicular ApplicationsThe number of assistance systems in cars has been increasing in recent years. While these systems are targeted at supporting the individual driver and his or her safety, they may though compete for the driver's attention, and may demand too much of the ...
Video-Based Driver Assistance—From Basic Functions to Applications
Image sequences recorded with cameras mounted in a moving vehicle provide information about the vehicle's environment which has to be analysed in order to really support the driver in actual traffic situations. One type of information is the lane ...
Toward Autonomous Collision Avoidance by Steering
This paper presents a new automotive safety function called Emergency Lane Assist (ELA). ELA combines conventional lane guidance systems with a threat assessment module that tries to activate the lane guidance interventions according to the actual risk ...
