I wish they’d do this with car radios and most everything else.
And if I was the pope, I’d outlaw the color black for use on electronic and household applicances. Can’t see the labels.
Knobs. Physical switches. Buttons. Large.
A previous owner retrofitted a whiz-bang radio on my truck. I had to find the manual online just to figure out how to program the channels and find a preset station. I prefer an older model with button and knobs that are intuitive to use.
Being a controls engineer, I have programmed many HMIs (human-machine interface) and I try to keep the buttons and controls as simple and intuitive as possible.
And off with the heads of all who design dashboards to look like freakin iPads!!! How can one steady one’s finger in a moving vehicle to push the d*** screens in the the right place!!! Off with their heads I say!
