We made reservations for workshop participants at the Café UNI:VERSUM for lunch (12:30). The restaurant is located within walking distance of the workshop location.
Additionally, dinner reservations have been made at the restaurant “Zum Eulenspiegel” (18:30).
The workshop PC accepted seven of the submitted papers for presentation at the workshop on Automotive Natural User Interfaces.
The list of accepted papers as well as a detailed program can be found here.
We are looking forward to an exciting workshop in Salzburg!
The early registration deadline for the main conference has been extended until November 4, 2011 (see http://www.auto-ui.org/11/ for more details).
As we intend to distribute the notification of acceptance for each paper on November 3, 2011, there should be enough time to register before the early registration deadline.
Due to multiple requests we are extending the submission deadline to
Monday, October 24, 2011.
We are excited to announce that our workshop on Automotive Natural User Interfaces (AutoNUI) has been accepted at the 3rd International Conference on Automotive User Interfaces and Interactive Vehicular Applications (AutoUI) in Salzburg, Austria.
Natural user interfaces by means of gesture and speech interaction have become an important topic in research as well as already for products. Most use cases currently center around consumer electronics like, e.g., smart phones, TV sets, or gaming consoles.
Motivated by the latest results in these areas, our vision is to apply natural user interfaces like gesture and speech interaction to the automotive domain as well. This integration might reduce driver distraction in certain cases and allow designing new experiences for operating infotainment and entertainment systems.
The goal of this workshop is to explore the design space of natural multi-modal automotive user interfaces in order to analyze where and how new interaction techniques can be integrated into the car. We would like to bring together practitioners and researchers to identify and discuss challenges and possibilities of automotive natural user interfaces. This also includes user experience aspects in research and development of automotive interaction design.
Please have a look at our Call for Papers – we hope that you will consider participating in our workshop in Salzburg on November 30, 2011!
Cheers,
Bastian, Tanja, Martin, and Albrecht
