ABSTRACT

In this abstract and the poster associated with it, we present preliminary results on people's emotional perception of assisted driving interventions as a first step in the development of emotionally-aware smart wheelchairs. Current approaches to collaborative wheelchair navigation are designed to handle objective and functional information (such as goals and system states) but little subjective information (such as the user's feeling at the introduction of an intervention). We explore user affect as a potential communication channel through which users could communicate more richly with their smart mobility device.
