CommuterNews: a prototype of persuasive in-car entertainment

Published:01 April 2000Publication History

ABSTRACT

CommuterNews is a prototype of an in-car persuasive entertainment system developed by the Stanford Persuasive Technology Lab in collaboration with DaimlerChrysler. The system presents daily news stories in the form of multiple-choice questions and short relevant sound clips selected from a standard broadcast story. By asking questions about the content before hearing the story, CommuterNews motivates the driver to actively engage themselves while gathering the news.
