OUTLINE
In collaboration with Kyocera Corporation (hereinafter referred to as "Kyocera"), sdtech has developed GUI and software for the future concept car "Moeye" envisioned by Kyocera.
For "Moeye", we integrated control of multiple Kyocera devices, dashboard UI design with optical effects, control software which coordinates with multiple devices connected to the in-vehicle network, and GUI software development and implementation.
Software Development
Various UX you can find at the demonstration of "Moeye" includes the following: virtual 3D (glasses-free 3D) dashboard display by real-time rendering for left and right eyes, functionally transparent dashboard via optical camouflage technology, emerging images via aerial display, interior illumination using CERAPHIC LED lighting, HAPTIVITY® tactile feedback technology, audio enhancement by a vibration speaker, and relaxation through customizable cabin fragrance.
In the collaboration sdtech developed various software such as GUI software to navigate through these latest technologies, and the control software to coordinate them through the in-vehicle network, based on Kyocera's concepts and required specifications.
Bringing enriched, sensitive traveling space in the era of autonomous driving.
UI Design × Information Architecture
Information structure design that makes the most of the unique "depth" in virtual 3D. For example, the touchable button is placed in the foreground, and the supplementary information is placed in the background. Making the UI elements placed in the appropriate depth.
While realistic 3D models such as maps and cars tend to seem a little odd in stylish flat design, they blend more naturally by positioning them with depth in virtual 3D. Making users understand information hierarchies easier.
The UI instrument panel is designed with 3 large arc-shaped menus on the left side, and they stack with slight tilt when not active. Though such an approach would make the graphics "skewed horizontally" and lower visibility in 2D, however, they are kept in the correct aspect ratio and the display panel is perceived as "tilted" in virtual 3D.
This is one of the advantages of information architecture in virtual 3D, which allows more information to be displayed on a screen at once.
