Overview
We developed a panel that works on the same principle as our earlier gauge product, but this time also offers control through a touchscreen. The home screen shows each suspension's current value; the control screen lets the front and rear suspensions be adjusted up or down, either individually or as a group. Users can save their frequently used settings (for example, a normal or sport driving mode) to memory and recall them with a single touch. The screen also lets you turn the compressor on and off.
Purpose and Goals
Our customer's goal was to offer air-suspension vehicle owners not just a pressure display, but a user-friendly control panel that lets them easily adjust their vehicle. We handled the entire process ourselves, from the screen interface design and embedded software to the circuit board design, assembly, and wiring.
Development Process
After the needs analysis, we developed the touchscreen interface — consisting of a home screen and a settings screen — along with the embedded software. We then prepared our own circuit board design and had it manufactured, handling the assembly and wiring ourselves. We continue producing it to order.
