Fascinating read on designing controls for cars. Like many, I dislike fully touchscreen controls in a car. Having to look at the button I want to take action on is a pain. Screens are (sometimes) not bright enough during the day, but too bright at night (aging eyes).

While going through some of this article, I kept thinking about other applications of the concepts of a physical control, with digital output. My mother in law could use better controls on her stove, and these would work well.
