All in one screen? I know that there may be some high end machines out there in the marketplace that already have what I am thinking about.
Is there anyone that has made an all-in-one touch screen that can do the climate control, stereo, and navigation? If not then it will be a matter of time.
Some of you have shown the computer/DVD/navigation combo but what would make life grand is to have the climate control in it as well.

I was thinking about this more last night. In my industry (oil/gas engineering), the control panel used on the surface is a touch screen. At least on the project that we are working on it is.
The screen is a blank screen until the programmers are told what buttons to create and where to put them. Why should climate control be any different? It is a button that sends a signal to a servo that opens or closes the doors to the AC/heater ducts.

I dont know about the speed (left) or direction (right) *****, but the temperature (middle) **** is mechanical. Its not electrical like in most newer cars. It would be a bit more custom work.
i talked to my contact about it, he said that with our cars, we have vaccumm AC's. He said u would need to get a servo and ALOT of extra work to make it work. Cars with electrical AC's are VERY simple to integrate, using servos isnt.
