Yu Chengdong elaborated on the design concept of Xiangjie S9
In the automotive industry, every technological update and iteration affects the nerves of the market.
Recently, Yu Chengdong in the live broadcast promotion of the upcoming Xiangjie S9, when the audience in the live broadcast room asked why he did not use HUD head-up display technology, he gave a concise and powerful answer: "HUD sometimes can't see clearly, so Xiangjie S9 replaces HUD by moving the dashboard forward." ”
This sentence not only answers questions, but also implies the uniqueness of the design of the Xiangjie S9 and the thoughtful consideration of the driving experience.
HUD technology is a technology that projects important information in front of the driver's line of sight, aiming to reduce head movement while driving, ensuring that the driver can concentrate more on the road.
However, as Yu Chengdong said, if the HUD is not clear enough in some cases, then it can become a potential hidden danger to driving safety.
Therefore, the Xiangjie S9 has chosen another way to enhance the driver's situational awareness - by moving the dashboard forward to optimize the readability of information.
This transformation of the design concept is not only a simple replacement of a function, but also a rethinking of the entire cockpit layout, human-computer interaction and visual engineering.
The forward movement of the instrument panel means that the driver does not need to take a large shift in his gaze to obtain vehicle information, which reduces visual fatigue and improves driving safety.
Yu Chengdong's remarks can't help but be reminiscent of some of the points of contention in the smart automotive industry in recent years. Among them, the use of HUD has always been one of the hot topics.
Some voices are arguing that HUDs provide a more intuitive way to communicate information, while others are concerned about the visual distractions and cognitive load it can bring. In this context, the forward design of the dashboard of the Xiangjie S9 is particularly suitable for the actual driving environment, highlighting the balance between safety and convenience.
As the launch of the Xiangjie S9 approaches, the market's expectations for this new smart car continue to rise. From Yu Chengdong's statement, we can foresee that the Xiangjie S9 will not only improve the driving experience, but also become an important practice of the intelligent car design concept.
Yu Chengdong emphasized practicality, and Xiangjie S9 does not use HUD, which triggers industry thinking
Yu Chengdong's point of view in the promotional strategy of Xiangjie S9 has aroused widespread discussion.
He made it clear during the live broadcast that because the HUD system sometimes does not display clearly, the Xiangjie S9 chose not to carry this technology. Interestingly, Huawei chose to use its self-developed xHUD system on its other product, the M9, and claimed to have the industry's highest 2K resolution and brightness. This inconsistent strategy inevitably raises questions from the outside world.
Yu Chengdong's evaluation of HUD this time puts "practicality" in the first place. His argument may stem from considerations for driving safety and user experience.
Indeed, if a technology does not provide the driver with clear, reliable information in practical use, then its value will be questioned. However, this has also aroused further curiosity and questions about the technology configuration of Xiangjie S9.
In the field of smart cars, HUDs are regarded by many manufacturers as one of the important configurations to improve the driving experience.
It aims to reduce distractions while driving by projecting critical information in front of the driver's line of sight. Yu Chengdong's remarks seem to emphasize Huawei's emphasis on actual user experience, but at the same time, it also invisibly raises the market's expectations for the Wenjie M9 equipped with xHUD.
Regarding Yu Chengdong's statement that HUDs are often unclear, the industry and consumers have different opinions.
Some people believe that HUDs have certain advantages in improving driving safety and convenience, especially in complex road conditions, which can reduce driver distraction. There are also those who agree with Yu Chengdong that if the HUD is not guaranteed to be clear at all times, then it may pose a potential security risk.
Ultimately, whether or not to adopt a HUD in driving, and how useful it is, depends largely on the maturity of the technology and the personal preferences of consumers. With the continuous advancement of smart car technology, more innovative solutions may emerge in the future to meet the needs of different users.
It will take time to test whether Huawei's different strategies can meet the diverse needs of consumers. In any case, Yu Chengdong's remarks undoubtedly provide a new perspective for the development of the smart automotive industry, and once again prove Huawei's flexibility and market sensitivity in product strategy. With the launch of the Xiangjie S9 and Wenjie M9, we look forward to seeing how these two different design concepts perform in the market and how they will impact the future development trend of smart cars.
