MULTI-FUNCTIONAL CONTROL INTERFACE

摘要

A system and method are used to provide a user control interface for controlling multiple device functionality. The system comprises a support structure, control regions, depressible interaction devices, and a controller. The control regions are formed on the support structure. Each of the control regions comprises light emitting areas. The depressible interaction devices cover respective ones of the control regions. The controller is coupled to the control regions and controls which of the emitting areas is output from respective ones of the interaction devices based on one or more modes of operation of the user control interface.
