Go on instruments

The instrument panel during the existence of the car has changed quite strongly. And the first experiments in this field there have been very interesting to look at, but it was noticeable that the concept of "ergonomics" and its implementation in industrial design came much later.
I guess you could say that in its present form tidy more or less acquired the final shape and familiar location of the major elements from the mid-to late 60-ies.
Increasingly, I notice that when the network is conceived debate about the directions of development of private (as opposed to commercial vehicles) cars, it brings to mind the saying about "bounding the number of mind in the universe and growing population."

Ipadizate all surfaces and controls, car moving by leaps and bounds. It is clear what the interest proizvoditelem. The change of design becomes a function of the twist graphic editor, not a rework of production, change molds and so on. Accordingly, there is sewn a tremendous savings.
Pokupki just getting dumber with each generation and require all new toys to fight boredom, which turns the process of movement in the car due to its increasing automation.

Interestingly, so far there are no standards or restrictions for manufacturers — high-spirited, do not want. The only thing that exists — in the United States by NHTSA (The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) has issued non-binding "Recommendations for displays and screens in a moving vehicle", according to which producers should refrain from use of photos and moving images, and input each command should not require more than six (!) taps on the virtual button.

While serious researchers say (and confirm what the results of laboratory tests) that touchscreens require much more time and attention for interpretation issued by information and for entering commands. They absolutely unintuitive. Trying to change the direction of the flow of air or to turn off the heated seats through the touchscreen is no different from sending a text message to divert from the main process control "means high risk" and the situation on the road.

Without getting too deep into sociology, psychology and peculiarities of the process of perception and information processing of human brains simply list my own humble opinion about the fact that of the comfort & safety features I would like to see in your car:

— Bi-xenon headlights
— Good visibility in all directions
— all the automatic anti-dazzle rear view mirror and heated exterior
— Adequate working dual-zone automated climate control with a simple, classic interface.
— Analog devices with real indicators of coolant temperature, oil pressure and naprugi (not saderinasanas in middle position switches the emulation of the warning lights, as most are now). Able to easily display the advanced number of parameters from the sensors (as it is solved in a BMW).
— Cruise control
— ABS and off traxen control.
— multi-adjustable cushion and backrest (separate) seats, and heated.
— high quality stereo speaker with connectivity to MP3 player or sticking of the stick.
navigation is unimportant, but if there is — remove if not needed, the screen uniproprietario and legkousvoyaemogo ON
— Elektrosteklo with avtozavodskoi on all 4 doors.
— both front doors and the tailgate with the lock cylinders.
— the glass sunroof is a good size with normally organized aerodynamics to keep it open at speeds of 110-120 km/h. an Example of how Beano E39. How not — Subaru Outback 2005-09. Herovenko, but ride — Lexus ЛС400 (noisy), SAAB 9-5 (small aperture).
— (Optional) Disable the Parktronic rear.
— a spectacle case for storage of sunglasses

What absolutely do not want to see in your car:
— every yourself-in-the-head devices, like radars, automatic brakes and rain sensors.
— touchscreens and other type of televisions — which can stop working at one point and to leave without any driver interface. And if it will be able to have a car at the same time.
— a million buttons on the steering wheel.
— otstutstvii review back, thick front roof pillars that limit visibility.
Elektrotechnik.
— push button start/stop.
— paddle button/pedal to shift gears in automatic transmission.
— weird new-fangled non-fixed paddle switches and selectors of the automatic transmission, the latter also in the form of krutilki on the tidy (Hello, Chrysler!)
— Automatic transmission with the number of transfers more than 5-6.
— sverhsekretnye tires.

So in conclusion — illustrate what is

GOOD:

Go on instruments...excluding BMW shny TV, just no picture better immediately

and what is
BAD

Climate control buttons are handy, but not on the sensor + the buttons still goes the sound "peak" to him not to watch theautomarket.ru/img2005/31_0909/20/06b.jpg (you can turn on the auto mode and not worry about the temperature, the system will pump the desired temperature) or this one from Toyota www.razbor-avto.ru/news/foto205.jpeg (the principle is the same)

O
OBN-RacerMan 11.08.19

No, this is not exactly need... now Unused extra buttons for hands-free communication (now just "auto-reply" is in the GU)... And the climate control I have is still there...:-)
PS And here push-button control "stove/kondeem" not too comfortable (specifically in my car)... must "touch" your fingers are fumbling... and understand that here it is — the desired button. Although the 8 "speed" of the fan (instead of the usual 3-4) is, of course, the THING is... (but the usual "krutilki" in this respect, more informative and "obazatelno"). Although I seldom go pop...

M
Malm-Em 11.08.19

then you will want a more climate-controlled to manage from the steering wheel )))

O

I also have five buttons staff — Vol "+"/"-", Mute, Seek "+"/"-" (enough)... But the second, an additional unit (also with 5 buttons) I'm "just" drive in drive (because the old GU does not support more than 5 external buttons)...

M

"a million buttons on the steering wheel." — just addition and decrease volume + switching stations on the radio or music player/ climbing menu magnitola. It's just not separates you from the road when you need something to turn on, off and toggle, and the way precious seconds of your attention while driving.

M
Malm-Em 11.08.19

))) "To turn on the air conditioner" . "Hood is open" . ))) The command convenient of course, but judging by search in Google it doesn't always work. I'm sorry, but I'm for ease of use, usually the more problems, the more problems in the future. Exsplorer certainly not a bad car, far good, but voice use is already present insecurities. Ford also has the automatic Parking system, but if the machine is in this mode will actually allow the accident, the FORD company, for it is not responsible (prescribed in the agreement upon purchase).

Noticed WANT: "navigation" ; in don't want: "touch screen". But navigation without tacrine does not happen, or how to implement it? Of course the head unit is all touch and no buttons are evil, because the driver needs to feel your fingers pressing buttons (the driver is just focused on the traffic, and something diminish, add to or just include to the touch, but navigation usually include in advance before the movement). Fully agree that Ford's "MITAC" this is evil, especially how to turn if hands after frost or cold car is all frosted? The touchscreen on the car, usually in the cold it is better not to use (coming down quickly), you first need to warm up the cabin, and then already to include. And if the manufacturer with him a stove?

"Keeping the sound will not decrease. Brad and I were mad." it pissed me off to. I thank God it worked. "GU works, just does not start the radio or USB flash drive, or DVD, which were previously sung, all you need to include." is not stored in memory, it turns out, by the way due to weak accumulator can this be. Possible curve model GU was wrong or something hooked up. I have a friend — electronic engineer, in this lane meticulous, he even all the regular bulbs in my car changed to led's that extra "feed" electricity to remove yourself all the wiring on your Isuzu have touched on the removal of the loss and a good result achieved. Of course, something altering increase the load and the same alarm or continuously-working GPS (which I use only in the case, ie if you do not know the way or where), all this consumes battery, but my car was measured (hyundai) there is obtained with this device in grinding the load pass, and with the standard factory GU stock was serdce. One word of many nuances that can discharge a battery. I'm in Marche too faced — engine new, battery new, and incomplete charging and generator standards. It turned out that the " + " terminal-like holding on 5 hairs from the bundle of power wires, terminals and replaced all the problem is gone.

W
White-Crisis 11.08.19

Are different — I agree.
But someone picky I'm someone not steamed.
For example GU stood, everything works, everything is plugged in, but the steering wheel adjustment is one click decreases only one unit volume, that is, to reduce considerably, you must repeatedly press. Keeping the sound will not decrease. Brad and I were mad.
More. Drowned out the car, put on guard, returned, started, PG works, just does not start the radio or USB flash drive, or DVD, which were previously sung, all you need to include.
There was a problem with Joram electricity for two days, has eaten the battery completely, because gps, who worked constantly and didn't pass out.

M
Malm-Em 11.08.19

China is also different there, I have (not Marche) production Hong Kong, and on the basis of chips and processor SAMSUNG. Thing that is interesting, having come to office, Nissan saw the exact same device (and my models on my hyundai car and model Nissan connectors in the bundle and all staff is connected), so the most interesting model is the type with GU factory and the mission is officially underway, although I know where they are released ))) Again on pradika also the firm comes with problems and is not particularly praised, seen some particular adaptation, just know if the GI native (factory) cars have to do with the module CAN, then better not mess with this option to the trouble.

Oh, by the way, is also heard on the Mersey they are crooked stand, one friend on the GL-even the clock is not earned, because it was managed through a module CAN, if the CAN is, it is certainly better not to put. They just aren't all bad, our family 2nd car, this device works for about 3 years (bought as a regular GU) of all the bugs was to hang the stick, but it at all devices this could be.

sometimes I'm strong, but after upgrading radars, cameras, lying has become a show, but the new house is still not visible... and when will the new update-it is not clear(((
BUT conveniently, before the eyes of all and do not have somewhere to look-it overrides the inconvenience)))

By the way, now video watch about your navigation smotri.com/video/view/?id=v1511974dfd0 it though and GLONASS, but on the basis of NAVITEL, and I think the cards are the same used (meaning they have to make more), and the menu has gone — the spitting image of NAVITEL. I think nothing surprising, except that walking on the menus in this navigation interesting and implemented a joystick, not a touch screen, but in the move to manage this? made at least on the wheel too, or on the dashboard though. And yet the edish and the wipers enable long ))) And a quote from the video "the Device based on Win CE", so it's like CCP made )))

It's all clear, I meant about the control during the movement, how is it? touch jabbed what you need, and then you look at the janitor a joystick like on my cell phone. And inhibit can the same Cityguide (I have it even can fly, if for example 120 rushing). And in your case I do not understand how moving the tube you can search for the end point of the route, although touch should be in the menus to go from CITY Guide.
