PANDA: Parental Affective Natural Driving Assistant


PANDA is a Parental Affective Natural Driving Assistant. It is a virtual in-car entertainment agent that can migrate around the car to interact with the parent-driver or with children in the back seat. PANDA supports the parent-driver via speech interface, helps to mediate her interaction with children in the back seat, and works to reduce distractions for the driver while also engaging, entertaining and educating children.
