Designing for passengers' information needs on fellow travelers: A comparison of day and night rides in shared automated vehicles.

Shared automated mobility-on-demand promises efficient, sustainable, and flexible transportation. Nevertheless, security concerns, resilience, and their mutual influence - especially at night - will likely be the most critical barriers to public adoption since passengers have to share rides with strangers without a human driver on board. Prior research points out that having information about fellow travelers could alleviate the concerns of passengers and we designed two user interface variants to investigate the role of this information in an exploratory within-subjects user study (N=24).

Circadian modulation of sequence learning under high and low sleep pressure conditions.

Humans are able to learn complex sequences even without conscious awareness. We have studied the repercussions of circadian phase and sleep pressure on the ability to learn structured sequences using a serial reaction time task (SRT). Sixteen young healthy volunteers were studied in a 40-h "constant posture protocol" under high sleep pressure (i.
