A terminal device separate from a vehicle includes a receiver that receives a notification signal from the vehicle indicating that the vehicle is in a first state different from a second state, a notification unit that notifies a user of the terminal device of the first state based on the notification signal, an input unit that receives, from the user of the terminal device, an input commanding the first state to be maintained, and a transmitter that transmits a signal to the vehicle based on the input received by the input unit. The vehicle includes a control unit that performs control that maintains the first state after lapse of a predetermined time from a time that the notification unit of the terminal device notifies of the first state of the vehicle when a reception unit of the vehicle receives the signal transmitted from the transmitter within the predetermined time.

Power machines and loaders having doors with an integrated display that allows the display of information, such as gauges, user inputs, mapped obstacles, boundaries, etc., that allows the operator of the machine to see the displayed information closer to the line of sight with the work area. The display can show augmented reality information about a worksite.

A vehicle control device comprising a display module with a display on a front face of the display module, a touch-sensitive layer, and a transparent cover attached to the front face of the display module where a front face of the transparent cover has a tactile feedback area. A haptic feedback unit is configured to provide an active haptic feedback by moving or deforming the transparent cover. A control unit is configured to display a graphical user interface on the display to receive a user input via the touch-sensitive layer and to trigger a vehicle function in response to the user input.

A vehicle switch device has a selection switch having an operation part that, when operated, selects at least one of a plurality of driving target vehicle components mounted on a vehicle, and an operation switch that is separately operable from the selection switch, and drives the selected driving target vehicle component when operated. The operation switch has a single holding operation knob that swings so as to have a front portion thereof pushed down or pulled up. The single holding operation knob is structured to allow a palm of a hand to be placed on an upper face thereof, and fingers of the hand other than a thumb to be placed on the front portion. The operation part is disposed on a side face of the holding operation knob.

A vehicle including a system for intuitive control of a vehicle component is disclosed. The vehicle may include the vehicle component, a sensor unit associated with the vehicle component that is configured to detect a touch command applied to the sensor unit by a user, a controller, and a drive. The controller may be operatively coupled to the sensor unit and the drive may be coupled to the vehicle component. The controller may generate a control signal based on the touch command applied to the sensor unit and may cause the drive to alter a condition of the vehicle component in response to the control signal.

The controller may generate a control signal based on the touch command applied to the sensor unit and may cause the drive to alter a condition of the vehicle component in response to the control signal.

An input device includes a base, an operation panel, and a shaft portion. The input device includes a first operation knob having a first operation part to swing the panel in a first swing direction and a second operation part to swing the panel in a second swing direction, the second operation knob having a third operation part to swing the panel in the second swing direction and a fourth operation part to swing the operation panel in the first swing direction. The input device includes a control unit to discriminate between a pressing operation and a pulling-up operation based on based on output of each of a swing detector, a first capacitance detection electrode, and a second capacitance detection electrode.

A door control device has a processor configured to determine whether or not an emergency situation has occurred in a vehicle, based on operation by a user on an operating unit that is to be operated to open a door of the vehicle, and to decide to open the door when it has been determined by the first assessment unit that the emergency situation has occurred.
