Visual-manual interaction with vehicle controls requires eyes-off-road time, increasing safety risks. Reducing cognitive load through non-visual feedback and gesture control improves operational safety.

Visual and cognitive load increases when drivers look away from the road to interact with secondary vehicle controls. Integrating haptic feedback into the steering wheel allows for eyes-on-the-road functional verification.

Lack of tactile certainty during vehicle operation leads to driver distraction and input errors. Providing distinct physical confirmation ensures task completion without visual diversion.

Reliance on visual confirmation for touch interface interactions creates safety risks. Providing non-visual feedback allows for eyes-on-the-road operation and reduces cognitive load.

Proximity of multiple controls in vehicle interiors leads to accidental selection of unintended functions. Preventing these selection errors ensures operational safety and reduces driver distraction.
