Investigating Affective Responses toward In-Video Pedestrian Crossing Actions using Camera and Physiological Sensors

Automatically inferring drivers' emotions during driver-pedestrian interactions to improve road safety remains a challenge for designing in-vehicle, empathic interfaces. To that end, we carried out a lab-based study using a combination of camera and physiological sensors. We collected participants' (N=21) real-time, affective (emotion self...

Exploring Emotion Responses toward Pedestrian Crossing Actions for Designing In-vehicle Empathic Interfaces

While affective non-verbal communication between pedestrians and drivers has been shown to improve on-road safety and driving experiences, it remains a challenge to design driver assistance systems that can automatically capture these affective cues. In this early work, we identify users' emotional self-report responses towards commonly...
