Summary
The modern dashboard interface has been continually redesigned to address the ongoing issues of complexity and information density. With the rapid increase in new infographics and larger screens, there is the issue of the user’s finite cognitive resources, resulting in inefficient visual processing within the critically short 2-second off-road glance to the user console. This issue is compounded by the uptick in the adoption of the touchscreen interface, which replaces tangible controls with a visually dependent control system. This project will address the issues behind an increasing trend in dashboard complexity through a systematic literature review based on traditional design practices, and findings focused on driver efficiency in modern dashboard interfaces.
