Proposal Acronym: XRive
Proposal Title: Immersive XR Training Applications for Human-Centric Safety and Innovation in the Automotive Industry
Proposal Summary:
XRive is a project focused on improving road safety and enhancing the driving experience through eXtended Reality (XR) technologies. It addresses the challenges posed by increasing road traffic and the transition to Connected Autonomous Vehicles (CAVs) by developing XR-based tools to train and familiarize drivers with advanced in-car systems.
Key Objectives:
- Driver Training & Familiarization: XR applications will help drivers test, train, and become comfortable with advanced Human-Machine Interfaces (HMIs) and Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS).
- Human-Centered Design: User feedback will guide the automotive industry in redesigning XR-based interfaces to better meet real-world needs.
- Enhanced Situational Awareness: The project uses advanced technologies—explainable AI, cross-view localization, and cooperative perception—to deliver real-time visual and textual information about potential hazards, including hidden or occluded objects like other vehicles and road obstacles.
How It Works:
- XR Training Tools: Simulate real-life driving scenarios to prepare users for advanced vehicle technologies.
- Data Integration: Combine sensor data from vehicles and surrounding environments to improve collective situational awareness.
- Feedback Loop: User input from training programs helps automakers refine and optimize XR-based driving systems.
By improving how drivers perceive and react to potential hazards, XRive promotes safer, smarter driving while supporting the automotive industry in delivering trustworthy and user-centered XR solutions.
