User interfaces in cars have changed drastically, even just in recent years. Most new cars now have some kind of touch-screen interface. 

On this episode of Transmission, Sebastian Blanco and Grace Sharkey look at how manufacturers are changing up those graphical user interfaces (GUIs) to make interaction with tech easier and more exciting. 

They welcome Altia CEO Mike Juran, who talks about his expectations for tomorrow’s GUIs to go all-in on augmented reality. He also discusses behind-the-scenes adjustments to take advantage of flexible supply chains.
