We are going to create a sheen over the medium rectangle to differentiate it from the main window. Select the ellipse tool with a white stroke and draw a large circle and a small circle inside of it to simulate a radar blip. Clip it to the layer with the small rounded square. There is a built-in grid via the Custom Shape Tools. Draw two more after that, making one medium sized and one square at the top right of the menu. If you aren’t using CS6, you can add a stroke via the layer styles menu. Select the rounded rectangle tool and draw a large window that will be the main window for the interface. Next, we have to design the basic layout of the interface itself. Set the Blend Mode to “Overlay.” Then, go back to “Filter” > “Noise” > “Add Noise” and set it to about 20%. Next, create a new layer above this one, and go to “Filter” > “Noise” > “Add Noise.” Bump it all the way up to 400 and click “OK.” Then, go to “Filter” > “Blur” > “Motion Blur.” Set it to a strict horizontal blur (at 0°), and bump it up as high as it will go. Hit Shift + Delete to bring up the fill options. In this tutorial, you will learn how to create this kind of futuristic interface. Futuristic interfaces are often portrayed in movies as clear-screen overlays designed in the likeness of the head-up displays (HUD) found commonly in the cockpits of most airplanes. Imagining intuitive, futuristic interfaces can be a challenge the only limit is your own creativity. It comes as no surprise considering it’s a vital part of how we interact with software or equipment. Interface design has become a hot topic lately.
