This interface is already in production in the electric mustang. The buttons are all touchscreen, with the exception of the physical center wheel which is embedded in a hole in the screen. The photo on this article may be helpful: https://techcrunch.com/2020/12/02/im-obsessed-with-the-ford-...

Disgusting and awesome. I hate and love it.

Just a mind bending and creative design all around.

Probably quite functional, but it looks like a tumor on top of the screen.

Ford missed a trick by not making it magnetic and easily removable.

Then they'd have to add extra hardware to detect whether it's there or not, and change the interface accordingly. And for what? I can't imagine an actual use case to justify it.

It's just stuck on the touchscreen I thought, like that microsoft puck thing for their non portable Surface device
