Abstract

With vehicle electrification on the rise, there is a business need to replace electro-mechanical devices in automotive designs. Many interaction points in a vehicle require some kind of button, dial, or switch to register user input. These interaction points can be designed under a variety of new technological implementations that allow more design freedom than the traditional electro-mechanical applications. This paper discusses different HMI applications commonly used in vehicles and the different technologies that can be used to implement these applications.
