As for UI design - the uLCD-32PT touch screen display is 320x240 pixels and can display full-colour Windows compatible graphics (BMP, JPG, etc) and fonts. The display area is 48.6 x 64.8 mm.

So the idea is to design a nice-looking display which can be touched to change it - for example a fuel-economy gauge for miles/gallon, and other alternative gauges such as RPM and fuel consumption/hour, etc. The image file is stored on a microSD memory card on the back of the uLCD-32PT screen and loaded onto the screen by program control. Then the program just has to update numbers on the display, or draw gauge pointers.
