CALL FOR PAPERS - Wearable Technologies for Automotive User Interfaces

This workshop aims at leveraging the discussion about an emerging topic in Automotive User Interfaces. The discussion aims at identifying the main risks coming from using wearable technologies while driving but also the potential benefits that wearable devices can offer in different driving conditions.

The workshop major topics comprehend and are not limited to:

• Wearable head-up displays
• Smart watches and bracelets
• Smart textiles
• Wearable physiological sensors
• Wearable haptic actuators
• Wearable interfaces for semi-autonomous and autonomous driving
• Integration approaches
• UX with wearables for drivers and passengers
• In-vehicle interaction design with wearable

Papers should be submitted in the ACM SIGCHI extended abstract (EA) format (3-6 pages), available here:http://www.sigchi.org/publications/chipubform
Accepted papers will appear in the conference Adjunct Proceedings and will be published in the WearAutoUI website.
