Takata CSW: A Heads-Up Display at Your Fingertips

What you see here is a pretty bad-ass concept developed jointly by Navigon and Takata. If you've followed this blog, you'd know that the new Navigon 7100 is one of the most cutting edge and sexy PND's (Portable Navigation Devices) for 2008. But Takata is a name you've probably never heard before. Takata is pretty well-known in the OEM automotive industry and develops little things like airbags, seat belts, fabrics, steering wheels, and other automotive safety devices.

Well in a small corner of Navigon's CES booth, was the display you see here. I was able to get a little bit of information out of the Navigon guys, but they weren't allowed to divulge much more than what was on the show display. So what is this funky steering wheel, what does it do, and why is it so special?
