Interface Design of VR Driverless Vehicle System on User-Prioritized Experience Requirements
The prioritization of user requirements is neglected in most existing interface designs for driverless vehicle systems, which may incur safety risks, fragmented user experiences, development resource wastage, and weakened market competitiveness. Accordingly, this paper proposes a hybrid interface design method for a virtual reality (VR) driverless vehicle system by combining a A-KANO model and system usability scale (SUS). Firstly, we obtain key words, and a total of 23 demand points are collected through word frequency analysis via combining with user interview and observation method; secondly, 21 demand points are derived from A-KANO model analysis and prioritized for function development; and finally, design practice is carried out according to the ranking results, and virtual reality technology is used to build a VR unmanned vehicle system in order to simulate the interface interaction of a driverless vehicle system. Then, the VR driverless vehicle system is used as a test experimental environment for user evaluation, and combined with the SUS scale to evaluate the user-prioritized experience requirements for practical verification. Empirical results demonstrate that this method effectively categorizes multifaceted user needs, providing actionable solutions to enhance passenger experience and optimize service system design in future autonomous driving scenarios.
