The automotive industry has adopted the CASE paradigm: connected – autonomous – shared – electrical. And in that context, the connectivity, autonomy, and sharing megatrends are all changing car interiors. As a matter of fact, this can be traced back to two major industry drivers: improving safety while improving comfort. Though this may appear like a dichotomy, they can be linked within the car interior where these drivers are evident in displays, interior lighting, gesture recognition, particle monitoring, and monitoring systems in general, be it for the drivers or the passengers. This brings the complete living room to the car, but as with the home, how can the car user interact with all these elements, ensuring as ergonomic a user experience as possible?
