Lot's of gripe on v7 UI.
How about we focus that negative and positive energy into a real project!? Save the designers at Tesla some trouble and bother of having to do this all on their own. We'll let them play in the project too. Can add real constraints if they... maybe upcoming feature hints to accommodate.
Do a give-back for the car company we want to succeed and make our rides better... should the UI see the light of day.
Let's do an open sourced design for a new UI that we'd think is ideal for all cars, right here in this forum.
For both instrument cluster and center console. Simultaneously.
Probably necessary to have 2 branches: AP and non-AP cars, but the there should be LOTS of commonality in the UI far all cars.
So many bright software, UI, UX and car smart people on this forum. (I'm just one of them :wink
I'll contribute a screen to start it all off. The "cleaning mode" screen, with a button and countdown timer to dismiss. It's symbolic.
BUT it gets ONE enhancement: You press the button for 2 solid seconds to initiate a countdown that the screen will go away in 5 seconds 4, 3, .. unstoppable and when 0 hits the screen is gone. This allows you to wipe the finger smudge off the button itself after pressing it to dismiss. Something you can't do today.
If we pick a common UI development tool for mock up's and put the source out there ... this could really rock!
