VW x Apple: Beastin'!!
![]()
VW's third version of their Space Up!--the Space Up! blue--is being revealed at the LA Auto Show this weekend. The concept touchscreen monitor "controls all conceivable functions" and is meant to demonstrate how future human-machine interfaces might look and operate. The touchscreen (no mention of multi-touch support) uses proximity sensors to react to gestures, apparently, without actually touching the display. The user can simply touch the "main menu carousel" to navigate to the desired category or manipulate the system with simple hand gestures near the display.

VW announced earlier this week that all new VW models in 2009 will have touchscreens.
No word on whether or not this is an official VW x Apple collab, but that touchscreen display sure does look a helluva lot like Apple's Cover Flow.
