CDN Award 2025: A Recap of the FORVIA Project

With Incari Studio, HMI prototypes are developed faster and more collaboratively. The FORVIA project proved exactly that and was nominated for the CDN Award 2025, which took place in London on December 4.

Last Thursday, the Car Design News Awards took place in London. We were nominated in the Best Supplier Award category with our project with FORVIA.

The story behind our nomination: In just one week, we built a fully functional UI for FORVIA’s CES 2023 demonstrator. With lighting, haptics, audio, and gesture control, all running in real time. The fast implementation shows how prototyping becomes more efficient and more collaborative much earlier in the process when Incari Studio is integrated into existing workflows as an HMI development tool.

 

A major advantage in this project was Incari’s native Autodesk VRED integration. Visualization artists and UX/UI designers worked together in one environment. Multimodal interactions such as lighting, audio, haptics, or sensor data can be implemented and tested in real time. This makes Incari Studio an ideal prototyping tool, which this project clearly demonstrated.

For this project and for the way Incari Studio closes a critical gap in today’s HMI development process, we were nominated for the CDN Award 2025. Although we did not win, we congratulate all winners and thank the CDN team for an inspiring evening in London.
