Abstract

To keep the increasing amount of information in luxury vehicles easily controllable for the driver and also minimize the mental workload, sophisticated presentation and interaction techniques are essential. This contribution focuses on a user-centered analysis for an authoritative grading of head-up displays (HUDs) in the field of readout units in cars. Two different studies delivered the evaluation data. In a field test, the potential and the usability of the HUD were analyzed. For special driving situations (city road, highway), the according display needs and requirements of the users have been identified. Moreover, the HUD was compared with redundantly competing types of in-car displays. As a result, a high acceptance of the HUD by the driver and a good performance compared to other in-car displays had been reached.
