Gestbaserade Styrgränssnitt för Fordon : Bedömning av metoder för fordonstyrning genom gyroskopgränssnitt (Swedish)
Abstract [en]

This thesis addresses the lack of intuitive vehicle control interfaces by developing a gesture control interface for intuitive vehicle manoeuvring. The problem is significant for a thesis project due to its potential implications for improving human-machine interaction in transportation systems. Integrating gesture-based navigation and gyroscopic technology, the interface allows users to control vehicles through natural body movements. This was examined by building a small vehicle with wireless gesture control and conducting two tests with the vehicle, the tests examined how well user intent translated to vehicle movement and how accurately a vehicle can be controlled with gesture. Key results demonstrate that the interface can achieve sufficient precision for less complex tasks and that user intent translates well to vehicle movement.

Abstract [sv]

Den här avhandlingen tar upp bristen på intuitiva gränssnitt för fordonsstyrning genom att utveckla ett gest-kontrollgränssnitt för intuitiv manövrering av fordon. Problemet är betydelsefullt för ett examensarbete på grund av dess potentiella inverkan på förbättringen av interaktionen mellan människa och maskin inom transportsystem. Genom att integrera gestbaserad navigering och gyroscopisk teknologi möjliggör gränssnittet att användarna styr fordon genom naturliga kroppsrörelser. Detta undersöktes genom att bygga ett litet fordon som styrdes trådlöst med kroppsrörelser och genomföra tester med det. Testerna prövade hur väl användarens avsiker översattes till fordonsrörelser och hur exakt fordornet kunde styras av användaren. Resultaten visar att gränssnittet kan uppnå tillräcklig precision för mindre komplexa uppgifter och att användarnas avsikter översätts väl till fordonets rörelser.
