Intended outcomes

The intended outcomes of this workshop are the following:

  • Bringing together researchers and practitioners to discuss the potential of subliminal perception in cars (to improve driving performance, road safety, but also dashboard design and driver-vehicle interaction),
  • Develop a research agenda by indicating the most promising research topics in this field within the next 5-10 years,
  • Propose perspectives on how to address these challenges in future research, in the development of prototypic systems, and how to evaluate such systems (i.e., to provide evidence for their operability).

Publications, Journal

The findings and outcomes of the workshop should push research and discussions in the field of subliminal perception (in the car domain). Accepted position papers will not be made publicly available (in order to allow further exploitation), but will be circulated between workshop participants (adjunct proceedings, PDF). Subsidiary material will be -- on author's approval -- published at the workshop website http://www.pervasive.jku.at/AutoUI_subliminal (e.g., Powerpoint PDF slides, posters, any additional material).

During the workshop a poster will be produced in order to present a summary of the results at the poster session of the Automotive UI conference. After the workshop, the summarized results of the workshop will be published and further discussion about the topic is stimulated in a wider audience. Furthermore, it is planned to publish extended versions of selected papers in a journal (a special issue call is in preparation) and follow up workshops are already in planning stage.
