I appreciate that but IMHO the options available 20 years ago are still perfectly adequate. Can you explain to me the logic behind obscuring heater controls behind touchscreens and those touch slider things?
- sircastor 6y agoI can’t speak for the whole I industry, can you give me an example? Also, in my experience it doesn’t really matter if it’s a touch screen, a touch control, or a tactile button. People don’t know their dash controls, even if they’ve owned a vehicle for years (and I’m talking about systems that are 100% physical switches). As an exercise, try drawing out what the center stack of your vehicle is, where all the switches are and what they do. Alternatively, the next time you drive try setting the HVAC to something specific without taking your eyes off the road, at all. How long does it take? How much of your attention has shifted from driving?
- marshmallow_12 6y agoyes, but there's a world of difference between a quick glance at the dials and navigating menus, pressing the same buttons multiple times, and constantly having to check you've got the right button/part of the screen. once, to turn up the temperature in a car, all that was needed was a twist of a wheel, now, you are required to go through every single degree celsius to do the same.
