Background
Perceived Quality (PQ) is an attribute area within the department Vehicle Tophat. The department is responsible for developing solutions for interior and exterior hardware and software. PQ is a shared service within Vehicle Tophat and consists of five sub attributes - Geometry, Material, Illumination, Paint and Surface Finish. Perceived Quality is a major enabler for Volvo Cars since everything the customer experiences influences the overall perception of our brand and who we are.
To secure a successful product in line with the Volvo Cars brand values, it is of vital importance in the development process to understand the customer as their needs sets the scope for requirements and requirement levels. Furthermore, as Perceived Quality at Volvo Cars mainly concerns the visual aspect of our senses, it is also essential to have a deeper understanding of customer behavior and customer interactions with our products.
Scope
When performing Perceived Quality evaluations there is a need of reliant visual interaction data. This project is part of a larger project that focuses on how to represent visual interaction data in 3D collected from different use cases, and how that data can be used for analysis purpose supporting such evaluations. Main concepts of interest are user visual access (eye position, direction of gaze; Field of View) and focus (Gaze points collected in eye tracking). This project will specifically focus on the development of data analysis support for visual access. It will partly cover the infrastructure and logic of how to manage input data in an intuitive way, and partly cover the development of analysis functionality, e.g. what components of the car is visible from what user position.
