Car HMI Europe 2021

The 10th-anniversary edition of the award-winning Car HMI Europe was once again a great success. More than 300 of the leading UX, UI and HMI experts gathered digitally and physically in Berlin to shape the future of Intuitive Vehicles, Automotive UX & HMIs during the 2-day event filled with case studies, networking sessions, workshops, information filled streams.

With keynotes on the Future of Voice in the Car, Android’s Impact on the Future of Automotive User Experience, Driver Monitoring Systems and UX for Sustainability, one thing became clear: Next Generation UX + HMIs have a lot in store.

Another highlight was the Car HMI Europe Award Ceremony. The Car HMI Europe Award in the category ‘Most Innovative Development Process’ went to Luxoft for their LUVRE – Realtime HMI testing in VR. The category ‘Most User-Friendly HMI Product / Feature’ won Mercedes-Benz with their MBUX Augmented Reality Head-up-Display. And Candera won with their Candera’s AI-assisted Smart Importer the Category ‘Most Innovative Application of Machine Learning & AI in Automotive HMI + UX’. All three categories were recognized by our international Car HMI Community via live voting.
