Challenge
A new degree of comfort
Gentherm got in touch with Bamboo Apps to design a robust seat comfort management solution. The software would allow drivers and passengers to effortlessly and precisely adjust the temperature of different parts of the seat.
The solution itself was to be designed for tablets. It would need to provide a user-friendly and appealing interface, as well as smoothly integrate with the vehicle’s hardware.
Solution
Intelligence in design
Addressing client’s needs and requirements, Bamboo Apps came up with an engaging design concept of a connected car app that provides uniquely tailored functionality in terms of intelligent seats heating, cooling, and temperature control.
To put an emphasis on the cutting-edge features of Gentherm’s system such as self-regulating sensing technology or a neck conditioning we delivered a futuristic UI design that communicates with car occupants visually and provides them with advanced customization capabilities.
Development
Seamless integration
The implementation roadmap also included compiling of visuals with LabVIEW Dev Guidelines and integration with a 3rd party hardware solution where the UI would interact with the ECU via CAN messaging. As a result, the innovative functionality of Gentherm’s seats was supported by engaging and intuitive user experience designed by Bamboo Apps.
Results
Just what the client needed
Bamboo Apps successfully developed and presented the project to Gentherm. They were very pleased with the solution, commending the team’s creative and responsive approach, as well as design quality and development speed. Satisfied with the result, Gentherm expressed the willingness to collaborate with Bamboo Apps in the future.
“We had the opportunity to work with Bamboo Apps on an innovation project. Their team was creative, responsive and delivered an awesome solution in a very short time period. They executed our ideas and provided ideas of their own and we ended up with a great result. I would welcome an opportunity to collaborate with Bamboo Apps again.”
