The Interactive Merc

With all cars moving towards being of a self-driven nature, it only makes sense to expand the in-car interaction system. Right now the automobile experience provided by Android and Apple are limited to a screen on the dashboard, but the future promises much more. The LIIC or Linked Information Interior Concept for Mercedes Benz assigns individual displays to all four commuters. Controls are still provided for a manual drive, but the display of information is probably the most important feature.

Designer: Dominik Lavorato
