- 11. Our focus In Italy 15mlns (42%) of users listens to analogue radio in their cars.* In this context introduction of new interactive system may affect the driving performance. Usability, User Experience and Safety are key factors to correctly design DAB+ services for an in vehicle context. *Menduni, 2003 6 CHItaly 2011
- 12. How wewillsearch a station with DAB? With DAB the number of radio stationswillincrease andsearchingcouldbecome a difficult task. DAB+ can supportserching/browsing station with: SL = station description EL = name of the Ensemble PT-1 = global genre of a station PT-2 = sub-genre Whichoneis the mosteffective, efficient and the best in terms of UX, usability and safety? 7 CHItaly 2011

- 19. Conclusion and future works DAB will deeply change radio and the way the people interact with it giving new opportunities and challenges With DAB the number of radio station will increase and the user will face an higher complexity Generally the results showed that categorization of the program could help user searching a station. It seems to be particularly useful in automotive domain where hands-free implications could be critical for user safety The quali-quantitative approach used showed to be a suitable method to assess the usability of DAB technology Future studies will be aimed at testing the reliability of these results with a larger sample of users 14 CHItaly 2011
