Objectives

The main objective of SP3 is to design, develop and validate an adaptive integrated driver-vehicle interface for road vehicles (including both cars and heavy trucks) for the safe integration of multiple IVIS and ADAS functions, including nomad devices.

Approach

SP3 is the largest sub-project in AIDE, accounting for the 51% of the total costs of the IP. It represents an extension to a strong line of EU-funded research on adaptive integrated driver-vehicle interfaces, beginning with the pioneering GIDS project in the early 90's , via CEMVOCAS to COMUNICAR.
The current work will partly build on these achievements and the current partners group includes leading representatives from all these projects. However, the current ambitions go far beyond the current state-of-the-art and a wide range of new and innovative features will be developed. In order to ensure that the development is driven by user needs rather than by technology per se, a user-centred design methodology, where incremental virtual prototyping and iterative testing is performed throughout the design phase.
The design work will be strongly based on input from SP1. The initial work will involve the definition of use cases and scenarios for AIDE functions and functional specifications for the system architecture and AIDE functionality.
A major part of the work will then be devoted the design and development of innovative adaptive interface functions and driver-vehicle-environment monitoring techniques for enabling real-time interface adaptivity.


A major task here is the development of the Interaction and Communication Assistant (ICA) that is the module responsible for the centralised management of information and adaptive interface functions.
Another important focus is on the seamless and safe integration of nomad devices into the driving domain. Finally, the integrated adaptive interface functions developed will be implemented into three AIDE prototype vehicles, one city car, one luxury car and one heavy truck, which are the main outputs from the sub-project.
The prototype vehicles will be delivered to SP2 for a thorough human factors validation.
