Auto Helper: Tesla Car UI Prototype

This is a self learning project for practising mobile user interface design. Design tools I used included Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator.

The overall interface style is simple and light which leads users concentrate on tasks without frustration.

Why Car UI?

User experience (UX) not only exists in digital service/products, but also has been widely considered in other industries through the development of the Internet of Things.

For automobile companies, the aim of designing car UI is to provide better UX in the whole system, which includes comfortable in-Car experience for passengers, ease-to-use interface for drivers, even providing online try-out and purchase options, improving customer services etc.
