Haptic feedback like knob clicks or button presses are much easier to use without taking eyes off the road as often.

Shhh, don't call it "haptic feedback" or they might make them flat, unmoving buttons that have a vibration motor behind them.

[-] krashmo@lemmy.world 20 points 1 month ago

They already have started doing that

I got a new BMW 5 series as a loaner a few weeks back and it had that shit all over. I'm happy with my 2020, thanks BMW.

Don't you still have to look at it to find it first? Edit: sorry i thought you were talking about touch screens

[-] catloaf@lemm.ee 20 points 1 month ago

No. All the knobs are in roughly the same area, so you can find and manipulate them by touch without looking.

I regularly manipulate my 2008 Toyota matrix’s radio and HVAC controls while never taking my eyes off the road. I won’t buy any car that forgoes the physical controls.

Some have tactile markings for location reference, like keyboars have

[-] breadsmasher@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

You can wave your hand at a dial and find it easily just by touch

[-] FireRetardant@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Even if you have to look at it first, once on it you can go by feel where as i find i struggle to do the same on a fully touch control.
