Sensus Volvo.
Volvo is equipping their latest cars with a 9-inch portrait screen dominating the centre of the dashboard. The Sensus experience is great but could be improved. The large tiles on the main screen are easy to interact with but they fail to display enough information at once and require the user to make a lot of actions of tapping in and out to make adjustments. For this project, I focused on usability, exploring a different direction, giving more control to the user to the first layer.

The Sensus experience on a gorgeous 9-inch portrait screen.
The Volvo Sensus system offers a great user interface and maybe one of the best in the market, but there might be still some room for improvement. The Home Screen offers an overview of the main functions, the connected phone, the navigation, the music player. At the bottom, we have the temperature controls, which stays always accessible as it is a primary function. The Home Screen can be scrolled vertically, to the left: the car functions, to the right: the car applications.
The Home Screen provide more control on the primary information.
The Home Screen provide more control to the user and make it possible to display more information at one time while keeping a clear overview of what is happening. Also reduce the amount of tapping in and out to make adjustments.
