Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for operating a motor vehicle (10), comprising the following steps: sensing a spatial position of at least one first body part (18) of a vehicle occupant (20) arranged in a sensing range (16) of a sensing device (14) of the motor vehicle (10) in relation to the motor vehicle (10) by means of the sensing device (14); providing an anthropometric data model that comprises data regarding the dimensions of predetermined body parts of a human and regarding the positioning of the body parts in relation to each other; wherein a spatial position of at least one second body part (26, 28) of the same vehicle occupant (20) that is arranged outside of the sensing range (16) of the sensing device (14) is determined in consideration of the sensed spatial position of the first body part (18) and in consideration of the anthropometric data model; and controlling at least one functional unit (32, 34, 36, 38) of the motor vehicle (10) in consideration of the determined spatial position of the second body part (26, 28). The invention further relates to a system (12) for operating a motor vehicle (10).
Abstract:
The invention relates to a control element (10) for a motor vehicle, comprising a control surface (14) for the input of user instructions for a component of the motor vehicle, which control surface comprises at least one surface structure element (20, 22) that can be identified by touch by a user, wherein the control surface (14) is made of glass and the at least one surface structure element (20, 22) is integral with the control surface (14).
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for producing a control element (30) having a touch-enabled surface (38), in which a paste-like material (48) is applied on a carrier plate (36). At least one raised structure element (32, 34) is formed by the paste-like material (48) on the carrier plate (36). For this purpose, a stencil (42) having inherent stiffness is arranged above the carrier plate (36) and the paste-like material (48) is pushed through at least one recess (44) in the stencil (42). The invention further relates to a control element (30).
