OPTimized system integration for safe Interaction in Vehicles Volvo Car Corporation Patrik Palo Manager - Vehicle HMI Attributes & Concept Göteborg 2010-10-21 ppalo@volvocars.com
VCC s utmaningar => OPTIVe Förebygga och undvika incident/kollision Driver workload and distraction studies have led to a greater awareness for safety in HMI designs.
Background for OPTIVe The introduction of new warning and information systems in vehicles places high demands on the interaction between the driver and the vehicle. An HMI that exceeds customer expectations, that is transparent to the user, and that fully supports the users in accomplishing their goals provides a foundation for minimizing driver workload. Not only is the packaging of HMI devices essential to improve safety while interacting with a car. Also regulating the flow of information to a level that will not interfere with the primary task, driving the car, is crucial for product development. The purpose of this project is to develop methods and technical concepts that supports integration of HMI systems in vehicles.

Purpose & Objectives Purpose To investigate, evaluate and demonstrate methods and technical solutions for safe, efficient, and cost effective integration of HMI systems in cars. Objectives Increased safety due to reduction of driver mental and visual distraction Increased effectiveness of complex driver dialogues, within safety, infotainment and telematic systems Intuitive human-machine-interface despite continuing functional growth. Consolidated number of driver controls. Prioritized and scheduled driver information to encourage "hands on the wheel and eyes/mind on the road".

Examples on OPTIVe deliverables Transport policy objectives A multimodal IVIS concept with integrated active safety settings. More functions and features can be handled and it can handle functional growth. Speech and haptic feedback will make it easier to do car- and personal settings while driving. A new driver information module will in the near future make it easier to understand and handle active safety systems and it will take care of the functional growth A new Green driving concept is developed. Research shows that green driving support also have effect on traffic safety due to more planned and calmer driving. New logic and added system functions for the Advanced Interaction Manager AIM raises new possibilities to integrate e.g. nomadic devices and use map data and that will have effect on road safety. HMI solutions and requirements have affected the electrical architecture and a significant work has been done to design and integrate systems and functions for today needs and to meet the future.
