Abstract

Background: The advancement of smart vehicle technologies has made human-computer interaction (HCI) interfaces more critical in enhancing user experience and safety. Compared with traditional cars, smart cars provide more sophisticated and intelligent HCI interfaces by integrating advanced technologies. Purpose: This study aims to analyze the differences in HCI interfaces between smart cars and traditional cars, as well as their impact on driving experience and safety. Additionally, it is intended to promote the design and innovation of HCI in smart cars. It helps manufacturers to integrate cutting-edge technologies and enhance competitiveness. It also serves as a reference for automobile manufacturers and designers to balance technological advancement and user needs, and to promote the development of the automobile industry towards intelligentization. Methods: Through literature review, the study analyzes the development, design concepts, and technical applications of human-computer interaction interfaces between intelligent and traditional automobiles providing theoretical support for future research. The case study examines typical intelligent cars and traditional automobile central control interfaces, comparing the two in terms of information presentation, interaction mode, and personalized settings. Comparative research selects sample cases of traditional cars and smart cars, analyzes the differences in interaction interfaces, and identifies the needs and challenges of users. Conclusion: In comparison of human-computer interaction interfaces between smart cars and traditional cars, smart cars significantly provide a more convenient user experience, which is difficult to achieve in traditional cars. Traditional cars, on the other hand, focus more on the usability and interaction efficiency. Therefore, when designing the interaction system for smart cars, it is necessary to take into account humanization and user habits, simplify functionality, and ensure that drivers can smoothly transition into the smart driving environment so as to enhance the fun of interaction.
