Entertainment technology has the potential to not only entertain travelers but also to reduce frustration, aggression, and foster positive behavior in all traveling situations. Games or Gamification can also help shaping the traveller’s behavior for the better by, for example, keeping them of from driving during rush hour or using less fossil energy getting from A to B.
This workshop is a forum to discuss how to enrich technology in transportation through aspects of entertainment and gaming. Example topics include
- Future vision of new games and game interfaces for transportation
- Game and entertainment application concepts, prototypes, and systems for being on the move
- Studies on informing transportation entertainment system design
- Social aspects of gaming in the transportation domain, including passengers as well as personnel
- Interaction modalities for transportation entertainment
