<strong>Abstract</strong><br>
The purpose of the project is to design and develop a GUI (graphical user interface) based Driver information 
system. Instrument clusters are the traditional readout meters available in the dashboard of cars and motorbikes. In regard of 
the  conventional  meters  that  are  in  existence,  the  analog  meters  have  disadvantages  in  lack  of  storage  capability  and 
accuracy  whereas  digital  meters  have  display  problems in dim  light  areas.  In  order to  overcome  these disadvantages the 
instrument  clusters  can  be  controlled  and  made  user  friendly  with  the  help  of  GUI.  Graphical  User  Interface  allows  the 
drivers to interact with instrument clusters using images rather than text commands and command linearguments. The goal 
is to enhance the efficiency and ease of use for the underlying logical design. These actions are usually performed through 
direct  manipulation  of  the  graphical  elements.  This  can  be  implemented  in  instrument  clusters  with  the  help  of  .NET 
software along with the assistance of MS access as back end tool.
