Method and device for influencing an impression which is subjectively perceived by an occupant of a vehicle, in particular of a passenger car, when the vehicle is being operated

摘要

A method and device are provided for influencing an impression which is subjectively perceived by an occupant of a vehicle, in particular of a passenger car, when the vehicle is being operated. The primary oscillations which are produced when the vehicle is being operated are determined. Data for secondary oscillations are acquired from the primary oscillations and are converted at least in part into vibration oscillations which can be perceived through the human body. At least one of the components of the vehicle body is excited using the vibration oscillations, the vibration oscillations being placed in an interference relationship with the primary oscillations. In particular, the steering wheel is also excited so as to undergo mechanical vibration oscillations.
