Abstract [en]

This study explores the user interface's design and elements based on Co-Pilot—Dig Assist's productivity features. In collaboration with Volvo Construction Equipment, the design was visualized, and then the design concepts were evaluated in a simulated environment built in Unreal Engine 5. The aim of this study is to answer the following question: How can productivity features from the Co-Pilot—Dig Assist be effectively designed and integrated into the Teleoperation interface?An experimental research method was employed in partnership with Volvo Construction Equipment to evaluate the functionality and usability of the interface through informal discussions, contributing expertise and resources, and conducting user testing. An iterative design method was used for continuous design refinement and updating for each iteration after each debate and user testing. Then, agile project management was used as project management, highlighting flexibility and understanding of change for each iterative progress.The design provided results that visualized the real-time feedback of the Dig Assist UI elements, such as critical information in the Productivity Assist for an excavator used in teleoperation.

Abstract [sv]

Denna studie undersöker användargränssnittets design och element baserade på Co-Pilot—Dig Assists produktivitetsfunktioner. I samarbete med Volvo Construction Equipment visualiserades design, och därefter utvärderades designkoncepten i en simulerad miljö byggd i Unreal Engine 5. Syftet med studien är att besvara följande fråga: Hur kan produktivitetsfunktioner från Co-Pilot—Dig Assist effektivt designas och integreras i teleoperationsgränssnittet?En experimentell forskningsmetod användes i samarbete med Volvo Construction Equipment för att utvärdera gränssnittets funktionalitet och användbarhet genom informella diskussioner, bidrag av expertis och resurser samt användartester. En iterativ designmetod tillämpades för kontinuerlig designförfining och uppdatering vid varje iteration efter varje diskussion och användartest. Därefter användes agil projektledning som projektmetod, vilket betonar flexibilitet och förståelse för förändringar under varje iterativ utveckling.Designen gav resultat som visualiserade den realtidsåterkoppling av Dig Assists UI-element, såsom kritisk information i Productivity Assist, för en grävmaskin som används vid teleoperation.
