1st Workshop on User Interfaces for Heavy Vehicles: Let's Get to Work

There are more types of vehicles than the automobile. Many are used for purposes other than transporting passengers or goods. They are often dedicated to enable the user in performing specific manual tasks, in parallel to driving. Such heavy vehicles range from construction vehicles, such as excavators and articulated haulers, to agriculture vehicles, such as tractors and harvesters. They also include speciality vehicles such as lifts and cranes. Recent advances in information technology radically increases their productivity and safety. Moreover, heavy vehicles are increasingly sensor and software-driven, as well as connected and integrated with information systems. This development creates new interaction challenges and research areas. The aim of this workshop is to gather practitioners, researchers, and professionals who wish to explore the potential opportunities, identify research challenges, and innovate in the domain of heavy vehicles.
