Quantitative Measures of User Experience in Autonomous Driving Simulators

As autonomous cars gain popularity, the importance of studying user experience (UX) in autonomous cars becomes increasingly important. Because validated UX measures specific to autonomous driving have not been developed, we identified several factors of interest common to researchers working at the intersection of autonomous driving, driving simulators, and user experience. We have collected corresponding validated questionnaires to create a comprehensive inventory. We based our selection on attributes such as length of the questionnaires, validation, and prevalence of use such that our work may contribute to an easy and fast setup of high quality questionnaires for the study of UX in autonomous cars. In this extended abstract, we recap the factors we have inventoried.
