EAV:
Integrating Mulsemedia Experiences in Autonomous Vehicles


It is expected that by 2025, the UK will increasingly see self-driving vehicles on the roads across the country which will enable new ways for people and goods to move around.

Optimising the on-board and off-board experience of passengers is therefore paramount for high social buy-in and widespread adoption.

This PhD research project aims to develop and validate a range of novel, multimodal technologies and solutions that serve to support the user experience, perception and usability of the overall vehicle boarding journey.

To this end, Mulsemedia and Mixed Reality (MR) approaches will be investigated to facilitate the design of vehicles that are optimised for quality of experience, health, and well-being across different contexts and users.

This project also includes a 6 Month placement with our partner Tampere University (Finland), where you will learn about system design and prototype generation.


Desirable criteria include a Masters-level degree in a relevant field(s), experience with Extended Reality (VR, AR, MR) and strong programming skills (e.g., C#, Python).

Prior experience with sensor technologies is also desirable.
