ABSTRACT

In this paper we will propose a new design for a safer and more usable In-Vehicle Navigation System. In order to focus our design on safety and usability, we generated several design points based on prior research. From our design points, we are able to propose a design for a system which uses voice controls as the primary input modality, and the rear-view mirror as a Heads-Up Display. In addition, we will propose displaying limited amounts of information to decrease the likeliness of a driver's focus straying away from the road. If we are able to show that our design is superior to current commercial navigation devices, we will continue to apply our design points and system design towards other aspects of In-Vehicle Information Systems.
