Autonomous electric cars and future of mobility
HOANGOVÁ, Kim
The bachelor thesis deals with the impact of car development on society, as well as both the social and environment consequences. In the thesis there is an overview of the enviromental benefits of electric cars compared to traditional cars with an internal combustion engines. The author compares the advantages of electric vehicles to internal combustion engine vehicles based on current societal and economic conditions, the impact that can be achieved by analyzing the break-even point. The acquired knowledge is then applied to the context of autonomous transportation and presents possible view of the future of mobility.
Visioning Studies: A socio-technical approach to designing the future
Sonnenwald, Diane H.
To discover the potential impact of future technology we have been developing a research approach called “visioning studies.” The goal of a visioning study is to understand the perspectives of potential stakeholders, and from this understanding develop socio-technical design recommendations in collaboration with computer science researchers. Two complementary approaches to visioning studies have emerged. One investigates task performance using an experimental design involving task simulation, observation, questionnaires and interviews. The other explores domain implications using a qualitative design including a video depicting the technology vision and semi-structured interviews. To date visioning studies have focused on 3D telepresence technology in collaborative emergency health care and future mobile technology in collaborative police work.
