VEHICLE CONTROL SYSTEMS FOR VISUALLY DISPLAYING AND ALLOWING VIRTUAL CONTROL FOR MODE SETTING OF A CONTROL DEVICE

摘要

A vehicle control system (10) comprising a control device (14) having a plurality of positions (22), a processing device (16), and a display device (18). The control device (14) is configured to transmit data regarding a position (22) of the control device (14) when an object is proximate (24) to the control device (14). The processing device (16) is configured to receive the data from the control device (14), identify the control device (14) transmitting the data, and transmit data regarding the first position and identity of the control device (14). The display device (18) is configured to receive the data from the processing device (16), visually display a virtual control (46) having a plurality of positions, and allow adjustment of the plurality of positions of the virtual control (46) to at least a second position of the virtual control, wherein the second position is different from the first position.
