Interface Screens
5.1 — Active Mode · Eco Mode · Commute Mode · Navigation Map View 1/2/3 — Full cockpit interface system
Modern vehicles force constant focus-switching between road (far-field) and screen (near-field), causing cognitive overload and increased reaction time.
Standard GPS treats the car as a solitary object in static space — ignoring rich V2X Smart City data, resulting in stop-and-go driving patterns.
How do we design a cockpit that informs without distracting — transforming the daily commute from a chaotic task into a seamless flow state?
Inspired by deep-sea organisms, the visual language is functional, not merely aesthetic — designed for low-light driving environments where visual fatigue is a safety concern.
Each color carries semantic meaning, creating an intuitive hierarchy that drivers decode at a glance — bypassing cognitive overhead that text-icon interfaces demand.
Green Wave Tunnel — Floating semi-transparent green hoops projected onto the lane. GLOSA calculates perfect velocity to hit every green light.
When V2X detects a cyclist behind a building, the HUD renders a Ghost outline — giving the driver X-Ray vision before the hazard is physically visible.
At High Confidence (95%), AR lane markers are crisp solid neon lines. As sensors degrade — heavy rain, obstructions — markers become "fuzzy" and diffuse.
The visual metaphor communicates "I'm not sure, please take over" without any alarm — a Calibrated Trust relationship.
A light strip across the base of the windshield communicates situational awareness through peripheral vision — zero eyes-off-road time required.
In Flow State, a slow Bio-Green pulse moves left-to-right. When merging traffic is detected, light pools left and shifts Amber — triggering instinctive mirror-checking.
"The Sustainable Autonomy Interface proves that the future of mobility isn't about more screens — it's about better communication. By leveraging V2X data and ambient design, we can create a vehicle that doesn't just transport the body, but supports the mind, turning the daily commute into a conscious, regenerative journey."
