USER EXPERIENCE  & USER FUNCTIONS

User experience & user functions: from infotainment to ergonomics

In the automotive industry, user experience (UX) and user function play a central role in increasing customer satisfaction in the long term and enabling an intuitive and pleasant driving experience. Modern vehicles integrate advanced technologies into user interfaces, infotainment and communication, and body & comfort functions. These technologies not only improve comfort, but also increase safety while promoting seamless interaction and user-friendliness.


A well-thought-out digital ecosystem accompanies the driver throughout the entire customer journey and makes it possible to accurately capture user preferences. The resulting analyses lead to optimized interaction concepts that significantly increase user-friendliness. We are passionate about continuously developing innovative solutions that improve the user experience in the vehicle and thus play a decisive role in shaping the future of mobility.

  • Personalization: Advanced systems automatically adapt to the preferences and habits of users, enhancing the in-car experience.
  • Integration: Infotainment and communication systems are harmoniously integrated into the vehicle architecture to enhance the overall experience.
  • Innovative operating concepts: The use of touchscreens, voice control and haptic feedback ensures intuitive operation and minimizes distractions while driving.
