I reverse engineered Apple’s thermal logo effect. It’s a Three.js shader that combines 4 inputs:
- A video texture heat map
- A mouse-driven heat map
- An Apple logo mask
- A thermal-style color palette

I find Apple’s next-gen CarPlay UI to be really beautiful. In comparison, every car’s UI is atrocious (maybe except Tesla)…
BUT I genuinely don’t know how Apple can convince automakers to adopt it. It seems so much work to build for something entirely platform specific, purely additive to work they already have to do, and takes away software as a differentiating factor for them.
I really hope they can convince some more brands to do this, but it seems so unlikely.

This thread should have been a blog post. Blog: What Is Going On With Next-Generation Apple CarPlay? https://joe-steel.com/2024-06-15-What-Is-Going-On-With-NextGeneration-Apple-CarPlay.html
Wild that Apple seemingly isn’t doing another keynote to talk about Vision Pro. That’s it? They don’t have *anything else* to show? Strangely understated launch.
These reviews on YouTube will get a looooot of views 😅
