"Similar to capacitive touch panels on appliances. You'd think this sci-fi look is more expensive to make, but it's actually cheaper." This is correct and will drive style and purchasing decisions for the affluent in the future, if it isn't already. A home full of wifi-connected "smart" appliances all (failing) to talk to one another will be a sign of poverty while a big hulking Traulsen[1] with no digital innards will (continue to) be a sign of wealth. High end auto interior design, while currently dabbling with big silly (and obviously poorly designed) touchscreen interfaces, in an attempt to seem tesla-ish, will catch up as well.
