As a car tech enthusiast, I was thrilled to see this all-new in-car UI interface. It's not just a superficial update; it represents a bold new exploration of in-vehicle interaction, opening a fresh gateway to intelligent mobility for drivers and passengers alike.
Visual Design: From Static to Dynamic, a Comprehensive Leap in Technical Sophistication.
The old UI interface featured a relatively monotonous visual presentation with subdued color schemes, lacking a distinctive style that leaves a lasting impression. In contrast, the all-new UI interface delivers a strikingly impactful visual transformation. The main interface adopts a deep, dark base paired with vivid, dynamic red outlines, instantly creating a powerful tech-driven atmosphere and a sense of motion. You can also switch to your preferred color style.
The left-hand function navigation bar features a clean, intuitive icon design. The newly added “CAR” button allows drivers to quickly switch to the OEM interface from any page.
The interface layout adheres to the principle of “simplicity and efficiency,” with core functional areas clearly visible at a glance. Whether it's vehicle information presented through elegant car imagery in the “OEM Car Info” section or access points for smart connectivity features like “CarPlay,” “Android Auto,” and “AirPlay,” all are displayed as intuitive, design-driven icons. This allows users to quickly locate and operate desired functions without excessive thought.
Interaction: The Leap from “Functional” to “User-Friendly and Pleasant”
In terms of interaction logic, we have thoroughly considered the operational characteristics specific to driving scenarios. All function triggers and switches have undergone repeated optimization to ensure the simplest operation steps and the fastest response times. Simultaneously, refined animated feedback has been integrated throughout the interaction process. The smooth transitions during function switching transform each interaction from a rigid command execution into a humanized, pleasurable experience, adding an element of enjoyment to the driving journey.
Particularly noteworthy is the richness of our smart connectivity features. Support for major protocols like CarPlay, Android Auto, and AirPlay ensures users across different mobile operating systems can enjoy seamless in-car intelligence, truly achieving “seamless communication between car and phone.” With just a few simple steps, the iPhone ecosystem extends seamlessly to the vehicle's display. Operations like map navigation and music playback flow effortlessly, significantly enhancing operational convenience and safety during driving.
System: Stability and Efficiency Under the Linux Kernel
As an in-vehicle navigation UI running on Linux systems, stability and efficiency form the foundation of the system. Linux's exceptional stability and resource management capabilities ensure the UI operates consistently and reliably in complex automotive environments, preventing issues like lag or crashes even during prolonged use.
Simultaneously, Linux's open-source nature enables seamless feature expansion and customization. Building upon this foundation, we will continuously deliver new functional upgrades and experience optimizations, ensuring this UI remains vibrant and dynamic.
The new in-vehicle navigation Linux system UI represents not only a visual and interactive upgrade but also a profound interpretation of the “smart driving” concept. It transforms the car from a mere mode of transportation into a mobile space brimming with technological sophistication and human-centered care, delivering a pleasant and efficient experience for every journey.
