Abstract:
What does situation-adaptive technology mean for car drivers and how can it improve their lives? Why is multimodal interaction in the cockpit a critical ingredient? This contribution summarizes several important technological results of the three-year research project SiAM, which investigated these questions. Motivated by the story of an urban commuter, we illustrate three use cases for situation adaptivity: multimodal control of car functions, cognitive load aware interaction with the environment, and a persuasive intermodal travel assistant.
