Leveraging stencils and capacitive touch devices to iterate in-cabin UIs

We present a demonstration system that combines off-the-shelf capacitive screens with easy-to-produce stencils to facilitate the rapid iteration of tactile in-cabin user interfaces. Designers can use this tool to experiment with the position and layout of interactive components; they can 3D print or manually cut stencils out of common material and mount them to the display surface with low-tack glue to create a tactile experience that simulates tactile controls.
