Journal Article
Clark, J. R., Large, D. R., Shaw, E., Nichele, E., Galvez Trigo, M. J., Fischer, J. E., …Stanton, N. A. (2024). Identifying interaction types and functionality for automated vehicle virtual assistants: An exploratory study using speech acts cluster analysis. Applied Ergonomics, 114, Article 104152. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apergo.2023.104152

Onboard virtual assistants with the ability to converse with users are gaining favour in supporting effective human-machine interaction to meet safe standards of operation in automated vehicles (AVs). Previous studies have highlighted the need to com...

Data as a Resource for Designing Digitally Enhanced Consumer Packaged Goods (2022)
Journal Article
Berumen, G., Fischer, J., & Baumers, M. (2022). Data as a Resource for Designing Digitally Enhanced Consumer Packaged Goods. Multimodal Technologies and Interaction, 6(11), Article 101. https://doi.org/10.3390/mti6110101

The incorporation of digital functionalities into consumer packaged goods (CPG) has the potential to improve our lives by supporting us in our daily practises. However, despite the increasing availability of data about their use, research is needed t... Read More about Data as a Resource for Designing Digitally Enhanced Consumer Packaged Goods.

Effects of Wording and Gendered Voices on Acceptability of Voice Assistants in Future Autonomous Vehicles (2022)
Conference Proceeding
Jestin, I., Fischer, J., Galvez Trigo, M. J., Large, D. R., & Burnett, G. (2022). Effects of Wording and Gendered Voices on Acceptability of Voice Assistants in Future Autonomous Vehicles. In CUI '22: Proceedings of the 4th Conference on Conversational User Interfaces (1-11). https://doi.org/10.1145/3543829.3543836

Voice assistants in future autonomous vehicles may play a major role in supporting the driver during periods of a transfer of control with the vehicle (handover and handback). However, little is known about the effects of different qualities of the v...

The Effect of Light Intensity, Sensor Height, and Spectral Pre-Processing Methods When Using NIR Spectroscopy to Identify Different Allergen-Containing Powdered Foods (2019)
Journal Article
Rady, A., Fischer, J., Reeves, S., Logan, B., & James Watson, N. (2020). The Effect of Light Intensity, Sensor Height, and Spectral Pre-Processing Methods When Using NIR Spectroscopy to Identify Different Allergen-Containing Powdered Foods. Sensors, 20(1), Article 230. https://doi.org/10.3390/s20010230

Food allergens present a significant health risk to the human population, so their presence must be monitored and controlled within food production environments. This is especially important for powdered food, which can contain nearly all known food...
