Concept Design

General view of the interface.

Under the dials there's an opening where the steering wheel mechanism comes out.

The "dash board case" was manufactured for the latest model of Dacia 1310/1410. Pictures with the original, 1980 style "dash board case" will come soon.

Control panel details.

Row 1, left side: temperature, gasoline and battery dials, a voltmeter in the center.

top row: fog lights in the back side, emergency lights, VFD clock (no LCDs allowed in this project);

Next row: climate control - which will be automatized later;

the eight buttons - keypad from an old IZOT CM5509 1650CPI reel to reel tape drive (spare part from my Felix mainframe);

Screen with Hackaday badge: an old miniature "Rovesnik" TV set made in the soviet union in 1989....1990. In the right side there's a spare space - maybe some rotary encoder controls will fit there;

screen with automobile schematic: color CRT display. In the right side - two oscilloscope screens displaying some random graphs. Keyboard is not shown in the concept. It is possible it may interfere with the gear shifter.

Drawn by hand because my computing machine is something slow from around 30 years ago.....
