Secondary tasks or activities which now equally contribute to the driving experience may become a primary concern for researchers and designers, in the self-driving car era. Thus, a new set of experiences will gradually craft the future of automotive. Designing for user experiences is a field that emerged quite quickly in Economic and Psychology studies and is recently one of the main concerns in Human Computer Interaction. Even though there were attempts in the past for in-depth context aware situational research in the automotive domain, which can lead to the real life understanding and design for experiences in the automotive domain, there is still a general lack of tools and methods for achieving it. Following the design science research paradigm in this study, we design and evaluate a system for supportive participation in automotive design. This system and our study will help us explore the limitations and the possibilities of remote in-vehicle design for experiences.

Identifying and addressing this area with traditional research methods is problematic due to the different UX design perspectives that might be conflicting and the related automotive domain limitations. To help resolve this problem, we conducted research with 12 User Experience (UX) designers through individual participatory prototyping activities to gain insights on their explicit, observable, tacit and latent needs. These activities allowed us to explore their motivation to use different technologies; the system's architecture; detailed features of interactivity and describe user needs including Efficiency, Effectiveness, Engagement, Naturalness, Ease of Use, Information retrieval, Self-Image awareness, Politeness, and Flexibility. Our analysis led us to design implications that translate participants' needs into UX...
