    摘要: The present disclosure relates to a human-machine interface, in particular for a vehicle or for a device, comprising at least one gripping element comprising at least one transducer transmitting a command depending on at least one item of input information. The human-machine interface comprises at least one sensor and calculation means configured to determine a position of at least one interaction surface for interaction between an operator and the gripping element, the calculation means also being configured to determine whether the command is intentional by determining whether at least one first predefined surface lies at least partially within the interaction surface, so as to authorise the transmission of the command by the human-machine interface when it is determined that the command is intentional.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a force application device for a control stick of an aircraft, wherein the control stick comprises a control lever (1) rotating a shaft (A1) about a first axis (A), the device comprising a magnetic brake (5a) which comprises a magnetisable element (50a) mounted on the shaft and a magnetic transmitter (51a) which is opposite the magnetisable element and free to rotate about the first axis relative to the magnetisable element, the magnetic transmitter having an activated state in which the magnetic transmitter is supplied with current and generates a magnetic field in a volume occupied by the magnetisable element, and a deactivated state in which the magnetic transmitter is not supplied with current and does not generate a magnetic field, so as to prevent the magnetisable element from rotating about the shaft relative to the magnetic transmitter.
