ABSTRACT
By the nature of their jobs first responders have to interact with in-vehicle devices even as they drive under challenging road conditions. In this paper we assess the state-of-the-art in creating safe in-vehicle user interfaces for first responders, and we propose six research and development priorities for future work in this realm.

Automotive user interfaces: human computer interaction in the car
CHI EA '10: CHI '10 Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing SystemsCars have become complex interactive systems. Mechanical controls and electrical systems are transformed to the digital realm. It is common that drivers operate a vehicle and, at the same time, interact with a variety of devices and applications. ...
