Pascal Jansen, M.Sc.
Pascal Jansen joined the HCI Group in June 2021 as a research associate and Ph.D. student.
Pascal has an M.Sc. with distinction in Media Informatics (2021) from 午夜探花. The title of the master thesis was: SwiVR-Car-Seat: Utilizing a Motorized Swivel Seat to Explore Effects of Vehicle Motion on Interaction Quality in Virtual Reality Automated Driving. Before that, he studied Computer Science at 午夜探花 and obtained his B.Sc. in 2018.
In 2021, Pascal participated in the German Computer Game Award and was nominated with his team for the serious game in the category Young Talent Award: Best Prototype. With The Social Engineer, Pascal was also a finalist for Best Student Game in the . The Social Engineer was additionally nominated for the 2022 in the "Young Talent" category.
Research interests
My research explores the , advancing Computational Interaction with Mobility centered around five key areas:
- Computational Calibration of Driver/Passenger States
- Optimization of Accessibility - Accessible Mobility by Default
- Scalable Evaluation and Computational
- and Simulacra of Future Mobility

SituWare addresses a central obstacle for the introduction of highly automated vehicles (see also BASt) into complex traffic: the required time reserve for a safe transfer of control to the distracted driver. Even environment sensors available in the medium term cannot always guarantee large time reserves. SituWare reduces the takeover time through a targeted, situation-related driver perception adapted driver guidance and enables fluid vehicle behavior with high user acceptance by adapting automation to the driver's situational awareness.
Pascal investigates how handover processes can be made safer and faster by multimodal attention and information guidance.
