  • Empowering the Front-Seat Passenger: Design and Experience Prototyping of Luxury Infotainment Systems Through Vr Simulation
    EMPOWERING THE FRONT-SEAT PASSENGER: DESIGN AND EXPERIENCE PROTOTYPING OF LUXURY INFOTAINMENT SYSTEMS THROUGH VR SIMULATION Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of Liverpool for the degree of Doctor in Philosophy by Güzin Şen. April 2019 ii ABSTRACT EMPOWERING THE FRONT-SEAT PASSENGER: DESIGN AND EXPERIENCE PROTOTYPING OF LUXURY INFOTAINMENT SYSTEMS THROUGH VR SIMULATION Guzin Sen Automotive user interfaces have been designed within the limitations of driving activity. Therefore, there has been a lack of infotainment solutions that target the front-seat passenger as another car occupant with his/her own needs, interests and capabilities. This research is built on the motivation of empowering the front-seat passengers in luxury car journeys through infotainment systems. It handles front-seat passenger’s empowerment through the investigation of how a pleasant and luxury infotainment experience is manifested via new functionalities and interactions. This research tackles the challenge of understanding how these unprecedented infotainment solutions will add to front-seat passenger’s travel experience with experience prototyping through VR simulation. It follows the ‘research through design approach’ by i) presenting a design proposal for the front-seat passenger infotainment system, ii) developing a VR simulation to communicate the infotainment system interactions within a travel scenario in an immersive way, and iii) conducting experience prototyping study where participants reflect on the design proposal (VR simulation) through administration of mixed data collection methods including semantic differential questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the research makes use of an extensive literature on User Experience (UX)-Human Computer Interaction (HCI), Automotive UX, Luxury Marketing, and Simulation.
