Abstract

Climate change increases the interest in Green Information Systems (IS) research. Green IS technologies enable the reduction of energy consumption by teaching eco-driving to make the driver aware of inefficient fuel consumption. To teach eco-driving (energy-efficient human behavior), car manufacturers applied in-car information systems. Due to the increasing visual in-car information, alternative solutions are necessary. However, the haptic interaction channel has a short reaction time for a given cue and seems to be an applicable solution to replace visual in-car information. The examined studies investigating haptic cues in the context of energy consumption and automotive applications have used the gas pedal—with lower user acceptance—to interact with the driver. For this reason, we investigate a smartwatch as the haptic cue in a laboratory experiment to teach eco-driving.
