Abstract:
A touchscreen display includes a first planar surface that comprises a first value-indicating virtual button showing a first value displayed in a first area of the first planar surface, a touch sensor operably coupled with the first planar surface, wherein the touch sensor is configured to detect a touch within the first area of the first planar surface, a second planar surface that is non-coplanar with respect to the first planar surface, the first and second planar surfaces forming a first common edge, a first swipe sensor operably coupled with the second planar surface, wherein the first swipe sensor is configured to detect a swiping motion in a first direction or in a second direction along the second planar surface, the second direction being opposite the first direction. The touchscreen display can be implemented in a vehicle, such as an aircraft.
