Abstract: A swipe gesture detection device may determine a swipe gesture performed on a moving surface element of a vehicle component. The swipe gesture detection device includes a spring, which applies a pre-loading between the moving surface element and a housing element of the vehicle component. The swipe gesture detection device also includes a contactless measuring distance sensor having at least three sensor elements arranged in different positions for detecting a respective distance between the surface element and the housing element.

Abstract: A display control device for a vehicle includes a memory, and at least one processor connected to the memory. The processor displays, on a display portion provided at a front side of a driver's seat, plural icons corresponding to a steering switch group that has a touch-sensor-type first switch and a non-touch-sensor-type second switch. The plural icons include a first icon corresponding to the first switch and a second icon corresponding to the second switch. In a case in which a touch operation of the first switch is sensed, the processor displays both the first icon and the second icon, and, in a case in which a non-touch operation of the second switch is sensed, the processor sets both the first icon and the second icon in non-displayed states.

Abstract: A steering wheel for a vehicle, including front and back semi-toroidal surfaces joined at their outer circumferences by a light guide in the shape of a circular rim, and enclosing a toroidal volume having a cavity therein, a PCB mounted in the cavity, an alternating array of invisible-light emitters and receivers mounted on the PCB, such that the light guide projects invisible-light beams emitted by the emitters radially outward of the steering wheel, and directs reflections of the projected light beams off of a driver's hands radially inward to the steering wheel toward the receivers, and a processor connected to equipment mounted away from the steering wheel, the processor synchronously activating each emitter with a respective neighboring receiver, identifying a driver's hand gestures along an arc of the light guide based on reflected light detected by the receivers, and controlling the equipment in response to the thus-identified hand gestures.
