An apparatus for manipulating in-vehicle devices using a steering wheel includes a reference signal input unit for inputting a reference signal to a driver through a charged plate, a touch sensor for receiving the reference signal through human body communication and for detecting a touch of the driver, and a controller for generating a control signal on the basis of the results detected by the touch sensor.

A system for implementing strobing of existing vehicle hazard lights including an interface to a vehicle wiring harness configured to receive input to an existing vehicle flasher module, a strobing circuit that responds to an activation signal from the vehicle wiring harness that is indicative of a hazard flasher deployment event by producing an electrical output having a strobing pattern that is perceptibly faster than a cycle of existing vehicle signal lights, and an OR circuit having two inputs, one of which accepts the electrical output from the strobing circuit and another of which intercepts output to an existing auxiliary vehicle lamp that is not otherwise activated with existing vehicle flashers or signal lights.

A system for implementing strobing of existing vehicle hazard lights including an interface to a vehicle wiring harness configured to receive input to an existing vehicle flasher module, and a strobing circuit that responds to an activation signal from the vehicle wiring harness that is indicative of a hazard flasher deployment event by producing an electrical output through the interface to the vehicle wiring harness that causes a strobing of existing vehicle hazard lamps.

The present invention relates to a steering wheel component (2) and a steering wheel assembly comprising the steering wheel component (2). The steering wheel component (2) comprises an airbag door cover (21), wherein the airbag door cover (21) has an integral panel (210), wherein the panel (210) has a first area (31) for closing an airbag housing (22) and a second area (32), which is arranged beside the first area (31) and is configured as an operating surface for a multifunction switch (3).

A system for implementing strobing of existing vehicle hazard lights including an interface to a vehicle wiring harness configured to receive input to an existing vehicle flasher module, and a strobing circuit that responds to an activation signal from the vehicle wiring harness that is indicative of a hazard flasher deployment event by producing an electrical output through the interface to the vehicle wiring harness that causes a strobing of existing vehicle hazard lamps.

A vehicle steering handle, comprising: a steering wheel that is an isosceles trapezoidal annular body composed of an upper bottom portion, a lower bottom portion longer than the upper bottom portion, and left and right leg portions; an accelerator lever attached to the right leg portion; and a brake lever attached to the left leg portion and the right leg portion.
