Abstract

Intelligent cockpit is a complicated spatial scenario merging technology and design, with more complex scenarios and interactions that set it apart from typical automobiles. With the electrification and intellectualization of automobiles, user experience is more important than styling design and interaction interface design. In this regard, we have established a research framework for intelligent cockpit based on scene space, and introduced the concept of tangible narrative, which strengthens the authenticity of the design content in the dimension of time and space through the realistic restoration of the situation, so that the designers can be more in the shoes of the user’s perspective in the design of the experience. This paper describes the positive experience of tangible narratives and their value for the process of design testing and optimization. The use of tangible narratives provides tangible and timely feedback for the testing and optimization of intelligent cockpit creative concepts.
