摘要： A touch sensor assembly having a selectable sensitivity level allows for a user to activate a touch sensor while wearing hand covers. The touch sensor assembly includes a touch sensor, a comparison unit, and a control unit. The touch sensor has a selectable sensitivity level, and detects a value corresponding to a capacitance of the touch sensor. The comparison unit has a predetermined threshold stored therein, and determines activation of the touch sensor if the detected value exceeds the predetermined value. The control unit is operable to select a sensitivity level of the touch sensor by varying the predetermined threshold by an amount unrelated to an environmental effect on the touch sensor.

摘要： A sliding-contact control unit for a motor vehicle includes a support element, a printed circuit board arranged on the support element, a control element covering the printed circuit board that defines an operator-controlled finger-slide control zone. The printed circuit board includes a first series of position detectors configured to determine the position and the direction of sliding of the finger of an operator. The first series of position detectors is supported against the control element, facing the slide-operated control zone. The printed circuit board includes a first detection element, which is simultaneously a contact force sensor and a haptic actuator, wherein the first detection element is interposed in a supporting arrangement between the printed circuit board and a connecting component, wherein the connecting component is in direct contact with the control element.

摘要： A vehicle switch is provided herein. The vehicle switch includes a housing including an output window. A first light source and a second light source are disposed within the housing. The first light source emits excitation light of a first wavelength. The second light source emits excitation light of a second wavelength. A proximity switch assembly is positioned within the housing and is configured to control a vehicle feature. A first luminescent structure is disposed rearwardly of the output window and luminesces in response to excitation light of the first wavelength when the feature is in a first state. A second luminescent structure is disposed rearwardly of the output window and is configured to luminesce in response to excitation light of the second wavelength when the feature is in a second state.

摘要： An input device mounted in a vehicle, separated from a display unit and configured to input a finger operation to an operation surface to operate an image of the display unit is provided. The input device includes a detector that detects presence and absence of a finger in a groove, and controller that prohibits an input of a finger operation to an operation surface when a finger operation to the operation surface has not been performed for a predetermined time or longer and that cancels the prohibition of the input when determining the presence of sliding of the finger in the groove based on detection of the finger in the groove by the detector.

摘要： A contact determination processing apparatus includes a contact sensor disposed in a steering wheel of and inside a vehicle. The contact sensor has an output that depends on a contact or non-contact state between the steering wheel and an occupant in the vehicle. The apparatus further includes a contact determination ECU that detects the contact state when the output of the contact sensor is greater than or equal to a predetermined threshold, and detects the non-contact state when the output is less than the predetermined threshold. In addition, the apparatus includes a temperature detection module that detects the ambient temperature of the steering wheel. The contact determination ECU includes a threshold changing section that changes the threshold based on a detection result of the temperature detection module.
