Title
Effects of location and fade-in time of (audio-)visual cues on response times and success-rates in a dual-task experiment
Abstract
While performing multiple competing tasks at the same time, e.g., when driving, assistant systems can be used to create cues to direct attention towards required information. However, poorly designed cues will interrupt or annoy users and affect their performance. Therefore, we aim to identify cues that are not missed and trigger a quick reaction without changing the primary task performance. We conducted a dual-task experiment in an anechoic chamber with LED-based stimuli that faded in or turned on abruptly and were placed in the periphery or front of a subject. Additionally, a white noise sound was triggered in a third of the trials. The primary task was to react to visual stimuli placed on a screen in front. We observed significant effects on the response times in the screen task when adding sound. Further, participants responded faster to LED stimuli when they faded in.
