Shaping In-Vehicle Behaviours through Activity-Centered Design
In today’s fast-paced society, most individuals commute either by personal vehicle or public transportation. User preferences and requirements are crucial, with design playing a significant role. The nature of design should be such that it is both inclusive and assimilative, and its purpose is to propel innovation and progress while also improving the quality of life of the user. That is why a general focus was given to the user-centered design approach while developing vehicles, especially, cabin (cockpit) design. With prioritizing the user activities, it is interesting to explore how users’ experience and behavior vary through the application of different design approaches. Nevertheless, existing literature has significantly overlooked the impact of design approaches on “human activity". Therefore, the main objective of the workshop is to examine the relationships between activity-centered design and user behavior.
