A control unit for a transport refrigeration device comprises a multi-color display for displaying at least one view including at least one graphical element, a memory storing two or more color settings for the multi-color display, wherein the color settings define illumination colors of the multi-color display, and a processing unit operatively coupled with the multi-color display and the memory to cause applying a color setting to the multi-color display of the transport refrigeration device, and displaying the view using the applied color setting, wherein the at least graphical element is illuminated in a color defined by the applied color setting.

The invention relates to an input device comprising capacitive detection device having detection surface including first array of array electrodes; electronic evaluation unit electrically connected to array electrodes to form associated electric measuring field array for spatially resolving detection of capacitive influence on detection surface; handling means disposed on detection surface to be movable along an adjustment path parallel to detection surface, in order to perform an operating input; position indicator; and coupling device with a first surface on which a second array of coupling electrodes is formed, and with a second surface on which a third array including spaced-apart contact surfaces is formed. Based on the position of the handling means, contact surfaces are touch-contacted by the position indicator. The coupling device includes several electrically conductive connections to capacitively influence the measuring field array. The electronic evaluation unit is configured to detect position-dependent influence on measuring field array.

Provided are a display panel and a vehicle. The display device includes a knob and a main display panel; the knob includes a first magnetic adhering piece; the display device further includes a second magnetic adhering structure, and the second magnetic adhering structure is disposed on a non-light exiting side of the main display panel; the second magnetic adhering structure includes a plurality of first magnetic adhering regions, and at least two first magnetic adhering regions are not overlapped; when the knob is magnetically adhered to any one of the plurality of first magnetic adhering regions, the knob is disposed on a light exiting side of the main display panel.

A display control system using a knob includes an input part to receive a touch input signal for a display area, a memory to store a display control program according to the touch input signal, and a processor to execute the program, such that the processor moves a position of a knob to perform function control of an area of the display to which the touch input signal is applied.

An assembly of a graphical user interface in a transportation vehicle with a transportation vehicle seat to which a range is assigned and having a touchscreen arranged in the transportation vehicle relative to the transportation vehicle seat so a first sub-region of the touchscreen is arranged within the range and a second sub-region is arranged outside of the range. The assembly includes a control unit by which a virtual operating surface with an application region and an information region are generated. The virtual operating surface is output on the touchscreen so the application region extends substantially over the first sub-region of the touchscreen and the information region extends substantially over the second sub-region of the touchscreen. During the output process, a first section of the virtual operating surface is displayed on the touchscreen.

The operating unit for a vehicle comprises a housing with an operating element on the front side, wherein the operating element has a display with a display surface and a cover plate, which defines an operating surface of the operating element, and has at least one projection region projecting laterally over the display, and is elastically laterally moveably mounted on and/or in the housing. An actuator is arranged below the cover plate, said actuator having a drive and a control element driven by the drive. The operating unit is also provided with an elastic actuation arm which protrudes from the cover plate and which is mechanically acted upon by the control element of the actuator at a force application point of the actuation arm. The actuation arm has a displacement portion, reaching between the cover plate and the force application point, for laterally shifting the cover plate, and is extended from the displacement portion thereof beyond the force application point, as well as being provided with an extension portion, within which the actuation arm is elastically and mechanically fixed.

An operation device for an autonomous vehicle includes a touch panel configured to display at least one of a start button and a deceleration button, and a notification button on the same screen. The autonomous vehicle is autonomously drivable. The start button is a button for starting driving of the autonomous vehicle in an autonomous drive mode. The deceleration button is a button for decelerating the autonomous vehicle during the autonomous drive mode. The notification button is a button for performing notification to an outside of the autonomous vehicle.
