Intelligent Healthy Cabin Design Strategy Based on Context Awareness Theory

Abstract

Purpose: Starting from users' daily health habits, this study analyzes the real needs of users for in-vehicle health services in driving scenarios. By integrating the context-awareness approach, it aims to enable users to interact more efficiently with the cabin in the driving environment. Methods: Firstly, the relevant theories of context awareness were reviewed, analyzing the advantages of integrating context awareness into intelligent health cabins and categorizing contexts into four types: user, environment, device, and time. Secondly, employing the context interview method and the Wizard of Oz Test, 24 white-collar individuals were deeply interviewed regarding their health service needs within the cabin. The analysis summarized the design focuses of four context types, establishing design strategies for intelligent health cabin systems based on context awareness. In the practical stage, the "Bianque" intelligent health cabin system scheme was developed based on the design strategies proposed in this paper, providing certain evidence for the design strategies. Conclusion: The application of context awareness theory in intelligent health cabins can effectively enhance user experience. Theoretically, design strategies for intelligent health cabin systems based on context awareness are proposed, and practically, the "Bianque" intelligent health cabin system design scheme is developed, along with relevant prototypes.
