With the release of the Estate Concept at the Geneva Motor Show, Volvo's concept car trilogy also finished the end. The concept car trilogy represents the new design language of Volvo's next-generation models, Concept Coupe for cars, Concept XC Coupe for SUVs, and the latest Estate Concpet for hunting and wagons. Of course, in addition to the design language, these concept cars also showcase some of Volvo's new technologies, like the SPA platform. The Estate Concept, which debuted at the Geneva Motor Show, also has several roles. Its second task is to show Volvo's latest dashboard design style. This article refers to the address: http:// Dial-up keyboard I don't know how everyone evaluates Volvo's current interior. Although the overall situation is simple and neat, but the digital buttons that firmly occupy the best position of the center console, such as the dial-up keyboard on the mobile phone, have always plagued the car. This kind of layout makes the buttons on the side very small, the function is difficult to identify, how many users who actually use the car system to make calls in the car? Volvo S60 interior But what makes people tangled is that Volvo does not seem to disappoint such a layout. This design is still used in the S60L listed at the end of last year. And in the first two paragraphs of the concept car trilogy, the layout of the dashboard is still the same - a small display above, a large dial keyboard below. Although the car cloud is very tricky, but can only sigh one sentence, this is true love. Of course, after seeing the Estate Concept, the car cloud bacteria understand that the original did not care, but silently slammed the big move, once changed a thorough. Estate Concept interior Just as Tesla uses a 17-inch display as the central control panel, the Estate Concept's dashboard also has a bit of a taste. Basically, no physical buttons are visible. An iPad-sized touch screen replaces the position of the original dial pad. The technology is full of children. Below the touch screen are the few remaining physical buttons, volume adjustment, play/pause, hazard warning, and window heating. These are the more frequently used operations, so the physical buttons are set up separately, so that the user does not need to go through several levels of menus on the touch screen to control, and does not need to exit the map screen during navigation to change the settings. Thomas Ingenlath, Volvo's senior vice president of design, said in the introduction: "We are not just putting the tablet on the center console, but designing an integrated and complete digital environment inside the car. The most basic design principles. It is to let the control system and the entertainment system sort in an ideal way, so that the driver can operate conveniently, safely and efficiently." Subtracting the in-vehicle system Unlike most in-vehicle systems that nowadays are designed to add to the law, Volvo's car system adheres to the principle of subtraction. Probably accepting the lessons of the dial-up keyboard, there are no functions in the system that look great but are actually not used. There are only four simple items: navigation, multimedia, telephone, and temperature control. Oh, yes, and Carplay, which is now awesome, has been embedded in the system. Main interface of vehicle system In order to facilitate the driver's use and operation, the system's UI is sorted according to function and frequency of use: at the top of the screen is a notification bar similar to Android or iOS, which can display some warning information of the vehicle; navigation in the highest and conspicuous position, This way, even when driving, the driver can easily see if the next intersection is left or right; the remaining three functions are arranged next to the navigation to facilitate the driver's operation. Dashboard display When the driver is unable to open the hand, the setting can also be adjusted by the shortcut button of the steering wheel or voice command. On the dashboard, there is also a high-definition display that seamlessly links to the touch screen on the center console, projecting some of the information on the center console, such as when navigating, on the dashboard display. An easy navigation map is displayed. summary: In recent years, the center console design centered on the touch screen has become more and more popular, especially in the middle and high-end cars. But at the same time, people are also questioning whether such a mode of operation is safe. Moreover, the survey shows that the voice control function that claims to be able to liberate both hands does not prevent the driver's distraction. The NHTSA in the United States is considering new safety regulations for the in-vehicle system and specifying the specific content that can be displayed on the display. . As a result, some automakers are planning to reintroduce physical buttons, so that at least security can be guaranteed, and users do not need to adapt to different operating systems. Ford is one of the fans. But looking far, when autopilot is implemented, these problems will not be a problem. Volvo said that the first commercial application of the new dashboard design will be the next-generation XC90 that will be launched this fall. The XC90, in addition to the latest Dirve-E series engine, is the first production car on the SPA platform. It will be equipped with all the auto-driving technologies that Volvo has so far disclosed. For its part, There is no such trouble. 120W Desktop Power Supply,12V8A Swtiching Power Supply,10A Power Supply Adapter 120W,Desktop Switching Power Supply Guangdong Mingxin Power Technologies Co.,Ltd. , https://www.mxpowersupply.com
