Adaptive Human-Machine Interfaces and Inclusivity in the Automotive Field: A Review

Abstract

With advances in automated driving, the importance of the vehicle interior continues to grow. However, the growing number of functions leads to a large amount of information on automation or infotainment systems. To create an individual customer experience and not to overwhelm the driver with the growing amount of information, an adaptive human-machine interface (HMI) can be a solution. (Amditis et al., 2011) With the help of adaptive HMI, it is possible to display contextual and user-specific information and to adapt the interaction with the vehicle. Inclusion is a form of adaptation focusing the needs of the respective users. Thereby, adaptive HMI addresses, among other things, the enhancement of driving safety and empathy in the vehicle. (Rittger et al., 2022) This paper provides an overview of the current state of the art with respect to adaptive and inclusive HMI in the automotive context and facilitates the identification of open research questions. A systematic literature search was conducted to facilitate this scoping review.
