Which is the smart cockpit？ See if your car is

In the objective evaluation index, the interaction path design of this award-winning model performs better, with fewer interaction levels and shorter operation time. Common tasks can be completed in an average of 1.86 steps on the central control panel, while the industry average is 2.7 steps. The position of the central control panel is reasonable, the icon distribution position is appropriate, the icon is easy to identify/remember, and the thinking/recalling load is reduced. When performing interactive tasks, the average lane departure standard deviation is 0.21m, which is 25% ahead of the industry level. The average speed change is 2.99km/h, which is 3% ahead of the industry level and can effectively reduce the impact on driving safety.For example, the layer card design of Buick E5 central control interface can not only display the interface status of navigation, media and air conditioning in real time, but also reduce the interaction level of common tasks, reduce the operation steps and improve the interaction efficiency.

Experts from J.D. Power and Tongji University shared new trends and insights in the intelligent cockpit industry:

On-line real-time navigation and intelligent voice assistant in the car have become just the need of intelligent experience;Online real-time navigation and car intelligent voice assistant are accepted by most users, with penetration rates of 59% and 51% respectively. The penetration rate of official car control App (39%) and OTA online upgrade penetration rate (38%) have been further improved, and the growth rate is relatively fast. These four configurations are also the most frequently perceived configurations by users in this year’s research, and gradually establish their cornerstone position in intelligent experience.

Sliding center screen becomes the new direction of intelligent cockpit layout;The slidable central screen of Krypton ZEEKR X opens a new direction of intelligent cockpit layout. From the perspective of user experience, the mobile central control screen is not inferior to the fixed co-pilot screen in the use and experience, which can be proved by the user experience research. In the future, controlling the number of hardware, using the flexibility and variability of design, and realizing a user experience similar to more hardware are new ideas that OEMs should try.

A breakthrough in humanized experience of air conditioners and seats is just around the corner;In terms of air conditioning, the natural system of Lectra 08EM-P combines air conditioning with the external environment, providing the occupants with an experience closer to the natural wind, and actively adjusting it according to the needs of the occupants, which is in line with the development direction of intelligent air conditioning. In terms of seats, zero-gravity seats are becoming more and more mainstream, and different combinations of seats provide flexible space for occupants in the car to adapt to different scene needs.

HUD gives the intelligent cockpit a new height;With the wide use of HUD technology, the size of instrument screen will be greatly reduced or even cancelled. After canceling the instrument panel, the cockpit design will be more flexible and the space layout will be more comfortable. In addition, HUD will be given more functions, such as enhanced display at night, real-time display of points of interest, video projection screen, etc., to further improve driving safety and car experience.

AIGC technology enters the car and expands the new scene of intelligent cockpit;AIGC (Generative Artificial Intelligence) is reshaping the way we interact with cars. The application of AIGC technology in itinerary planning is of revolutionary significance. By comprehensively analyzing users’ behavior habits, historical preferences and real-time road conditions, AIGC can provide customized travel advice. In the intelligent cockpit, AIGC can also immediately understand and respond to users’ needs, quickly analyze users’ intentions and contexts, and provide corresponding services.
