The user is greeted by a welcome image via the Heads-Up Display (HUD) once their phone has successfully synced with their vehicle.
While driving, the navigation app can display information according to the user's preferences such as heading, speed, fuel range, ETA, distance and/or time to next turn, and turn-by-turn directions.
Once within range of your destination, it seeks out open parking spaces. They are indicated for you on the HUD.
Using your smartphone's camera, the app could show you your destination waypoint overlaid on the real-time camera feed.
This Preliminary Interface Design walks through the Use Case Scenario in which Telenav initiates and helps the user plan a trip based on a calendar appointment and the user's location.
This HUD projector and cell phone dock was designed as part of the user interface project.
The Final Interface Design incorporates voice control and a more polished look. In this user scenario, the app aids the user in planning their errands on their way home from work, as well as providing smart navigation.

Telenav Navigation App Concept
Some of the staff from Telenav made the trip up from Silicon Valley and gave our class an assignment: image the near future of navigation. They would check in every couple weeks to check on our progress and provide feedback to supplement that of our classmates and instructor.
I downloaded a few icon and iPhone templates for the cell phone screenshots, modifying or making from scratch whatever I needed. I used Photoshop and Illustrator to mock up the app screenshots and HUD shots, SolidWorks and PhotoView 360 for the projector renderings, and finally InDesign to layout the boards, which were displayed in Telenav's booth at CES 2012.
