“…As such, external HMIs provide a novel design space for pedestrians. Asha et al (2020) investigate various eHMI concepts, such as public displays, warning systems, and malfunction alerts. Additionally, eHMIs can be used as ambient displays by blending into the environment to reduce visual pollution in the cityscape (Asha et al, 2020).…”

Additionally, eHMIs can be used as ambient displays by blending into the environment to reduce visual pollution in the cityscape (Asha et al, 2020). However, such eHMIs are not limited to visualization only (e.g., Chang et al, 2017;Stadler et al, 2019), indeed, they can be used for interaction purposes, such as active route navigation for pedestrians using gesture interaction (Gruenefeld et al, 2019).…”

While virtual reality (VR) interfaces have been researched extensively over the last decades, studies on their application in vehicles have only recently advanced. In this paper, we systematically review 12 years of VR research in the context of automated driving (AD), from 2009 to 2020. Due to the multitude of possibilities for studies with regard to VR technology, at present, the pool of findings is heterogeneous and non-transparent. We investigated N = 176 scientific papers of relevant journals and conferences with the goal to analyze the status quo of existing VR studies in AD, and to classify the related literature into application areas. We provide insights into the utilization of VR technology which is applicable at specific level of vehicle automation and for different users (drivers, passengers, pedestrians) and tasks. Results show that most studies focused on designing automotive experiences in VR, safety aspects, and vulnerable road users. Trust, simulator and motion sickness, and external human-machine interfaces (eHMIs) also marked a significant portion of the published papers, however a wide range of different parameters was investigated by researchers. Finally, we discuss a set of open challenges, and give recommendation for future research in automated driving at the VR side of the reality-virtuality continuum.

“…Furthermore, researchers began to investigate external communication concepts beyond crossing scenarios: for example, Colley and Rukzio (2020) investigated the specific situation in which automated delivery trucks would block parts of the road and sidewalks and designed and evaluated a visualisation concept that guides pedestrians to safely walk past the truck. Others conceptualised autonomous vehicles as public displays that can do more than display information related to the vehicle's operational task and pedestrian safety, such as showing navigation cues and advertisements (Colley et al, 2017;Asha et al, 2020;Colley et al, 2018). However, despite the plethora of eHMI concepts, systematic reviews (Dey et al, 2020a;Colley et al, 2020a) have emphasised that a majority of design concepts are limited to one specific traffic situation, mostly uncontrolled zebra crossings, and only few empirical evaluations take into account urban contexts beyond the road, such as shared spaces (Li et al, 2021).…”

In this article, we report on the design and evaluation of an external human-machine interface (eHMI) for a real autonomous vehicle (AV), developed to operate as a shared transport pod in a pedestrianized urban space. We present insights about our human-centered design process, which included testing initial concepts through a tangible toolkit and evaluating 360-degree recordings of a staged pick-up scenario in virtual reality. Our results indicate that in complex mobility scenarios, participants filter for critical eHMI messages; further, we found that implicit cues (i.e., pick-up manoeuvre and proximity to the rider) influence participants' experience and trust, while at the same time more explicit interaction modes are desired. This highlights the importance of considering interactions with shared AVs as a service more holistically, in order to develop knowledge about AV-pedestrian interactions in complex mobility scenarios that complements more targeted eHMI evaluations.
