food for thoughts ...

How to consider the vehicle as a link between passengers and surrounding?

Don't we need art and imagination in addition to just convenience, comfort, ergonomy and status?

How to design the desirable autonomous experience for the ex-driver?

Can we think displays as windows on the world: from e-mirror to e-windshield to building e-window?
