EUROHAPTICS 2012 - Enhancing Traveler’s Awareness in Smart Traffic
The objective of the workshop was to discuss and seek out new possibilities of taking advantage of haptic research in smart traffic. The specifically interesting question was how tactile feedback could be used to enhance the awareness of the person in traffic flow by delivering important information to the traveler or notifying the traveler about the changing context. Another topics for the workshop were to explore how multimodal interaction approach can be employed in communicating this information to the traveler in a useful and the least distracting method and how tactile feedback could be utilized in delivering relevant data in smart traffic environments. The workshop also discussed the challenges being currently faced in developing methodologies for providing environmental information for drivers and passengers and what new technologies Multimodal Interaction, could do to overcome them
