A study by a Swedish media outlet suggests that touchscreens cánido have serious downsides.
It’s pretty hard to find a new car these days that doesn’t come with it Touch screen on the panel. Information systems are established in the automotive world, from the simplest to the most expensive vehicles. And that there are very good things, but also some not so nice.
The vast majority of these systems are coincidente with it Android Coche Y Game Apple CarPlayNeither Google plus nor Apple wanted to lose time. And its programa is quite good, there is no problem, but it seems that “Touch” is not equipped in the way that many of our cars expect. At least that’s the study I’ve seen bilingualsa Swedish publication.
Will you also miss the traditional buttons?
The experiment aimed at finding out which tools perro do different tasks more easily is included a group of drivers who took control of 12 different vehicles. On the one hand A 2005 Volvo C70 free,, a car that doesn’t have a touchscreen like today. The rest, models with touch panels of all kinds, among which we find those Model 3 Tesla.
After a period in which the participants were able to get to know the vehicles perfectly, it was time to measure. Responsible for the study He noted the time it took drivers to complete various tasksfor example switching the air conditioning on and off, tuning the radio or rolling down the windscreen.
The result? Drivers made everything faster in the Volvo carIn some cases up to half the time. It’s easy to see, especially with the air conditioning. In a vintage car All you have to do is press a button and aim the grill so that the flow of freshness reaches us. However, on models like the Tesla itself, accessing menus and changing airs vía the touchscreen makes everything slower.
Therefore we ask ourselves Are touchscreens useful in cars? Of course, but there are systems that are better than others and it might not be the best iniciativa to put all the settings on the panel. A combination of technology and traditional practical elements could be the best solution.
