Non-contact Touch Technology Launched By Jaguar Land Rover

Recently, Jaguar Land Rover and the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom developed a new type of non-contact touch screen. Through this technology, Jaguar Land Rover owners can focus more on driving, while also reducing the spread of bacteria and viruses. Jaguar Land Rover's vision of zero emissions, zero accidents and zero congestion is also quietly realized.


A few years ago, when BMW's gesture control was introduced, it really meant something new and different, but the non-contact touch technology introduced by Jaguar Land Rover is more like a sublimation. "Predictive touch response" uses AI artificial intelligence to predict the user's touch intention at the early stage of using the screen and speed up the interaction. This technology, based on visual or radio frequency sensor gesture tracking technology, can combine information including user portraits, interface design and environmental conditions with other sensor data.In this way, the user's intention can be inferred immediately, and the in-vehicle information and entertainment system can be controlled under the premise of no touch.


In the harsh driving environment, users can accurately and quickly realize the touch of the screen even in bumpy and dim environments. According to this logic, in the process of driving, this technology can greatly increase the driver's concentration on the road, thereby effectively reducing the risk of accidents.Comprehensive tests show that the non-contact touch screen of Jaguar Land Rover can save drivers up to 50% of time and energy, and can effectively limit the spread of bacteria and viruses.


Just looking at these introductions may be a bit illusory, is this another dream that only stays on paper? Officials claim that this software-based "predictive touch response" has reached high-tech maturity. By using correct sensory data to support machine learning algorithms, it can be seamlessly integrated into existing touch screens and interactive displays. Therefore, we can also believe that if non-contact control can be successfully promoted, the beneficiaries will no longer be limited to car owners, but will expand to all mankind, and its application range will no longer be limited to the carriage. As small as ATM buttons and elevator buttons that are closely related to the operation of ordinary people, as large as applications in industrial and manufacturing scenarios, they can be well integrated with this technology.
