This demo shows some basic controls that can be found in a vehicle interior, intended to allow users to modify such comfort-specific parameters as seat heating and climate. This is another demo that was designed to show how a user might interact with an automobile screen equiped with a unique haptic technology. Haptic effects are added to the screen controls, allowing users to receive touch feedback when their fingers come in contact with various screen components. In particular, users are able to feel an effect that simulates that of pressing buttons, to control seat heating for instance. They are also able to feel feedback when dragging touch-controls across the screen, which allows for easier interaction with the interface; users can detect when they make changes to settings without necessarily looking at the screen.

This interface was designed to demo a tactile screen equipped with haptics inside an automobile. The objective was to design an interface that closely resembled existing automotive screens and introduce novel tactile interactions to easily recognizable screen controls, such as temperature or media selection. The demo includes a climate control screen, music player, and an in-car calling interface. Haptic effects were added to screen controls, allowing users to receive touch feedback when their fingers come in contact with various screen components. In particular, users are able to feel an effect that simulates that of pressing buttons, to control comfort settings or to navigate the interface. They are also able to feel feedback when dragging touch-controls across the screen. This enhances users' perception of their actions. Users can detect when they make changes to settings thanks to sensory feedback at their fingertips, and without necessarily looking at the screen.
