Autonomous Vehicles are the utopian future that automakers pursue. While advancements are made to improve autonomous navigation and obstacle detection feasible, less effort was spent in preparing the passenger's expectations of that future - riding inside a vehicle without a human driver steering the car. According to a 2017 survey of 1,012 U.S. adults, three-quarters of drivers would be afraid to ride in a self-driving vehicle. Drawing inspiration from natural interactions with human drivers and providing new ways to show contextual information, this project aims to create an in-car experience that reduces passenger anxiety by improving car-to-passenger interactions.
