In the U.K. there’s such concern over being distracted while driving that it’s illegal to touch a smartphone while driving even if you’re just using google maps. Not sure a giant touchscreen in the middle of the dashboard would be any better.
What would be cool would be a long thin OLED screen where the instrumentation normally goes. And physical controls with a Taptic-style feedback mechanism for navigating dynamic interfaces.
This would allow for a more fluid, updateable UI while still keeping important info in the eyeline.
More expensive than just slapping an off-the-shelf LCD panel wherever it’ll fit I guess...
