Method and device for providing a user interface, in particular in a vehicle

摘要

A method and device for providing a user interface includes an operator unit having multiple operator positions, in particular in a vehicle. In the method, a manual operator action for the operator unit, executed by a control element, is detected, and during the manual operator action an acceleration of at least one reference system associated with the control element or the operator unit is detected. Through the manual operator action, an input for a certain operating position is detected, the detected acceleration is used to calculate a correction for the detected operator position, and a control signal associated with the corrected operator position is generated.

1. A method for providing a user interface in a vehicle having an operator unit which encompasses multiple operator positions, the method comprising:
detecting a manual operator action for the operator unit executed by a control element, wherein an approach trajectory of the control element toward the operator unit is detected during the manual operator action; detecting an acceleration event of at least one reference system associated with the control element or the operator unit during the manual operator action; detecting an input event at an input location corresponding to a particular operator position selected by the manual operator action executed by the control element; calculating a corrected input location corresponding to an intended operator position based on the detected approach trajectory and the detected acceleration event, wherein the calculation of the corrected input location includes one of (i) taking into consideration an oscillation and damping behavior of the at least one reference system subjected to the detected acceleration event and, and (ii) in the case the input event is detected while the detected acceleration is ongoing, extrapolating a portion of the detected approach trajectory occurring prior to the detected acceleration event; and generating a control signal associated with the corrected input location corresponding to the intended operator position.
