A vehicular manipulation apparatus, which manipulates a different apparatus, includes a manipulation unit, a communication unit, a display unit, and a controller. The manipulation unit accepts a manipulation and inputs a set value step-by-step for controlling the different apparatus. The communication unit communicates with the different apparatus, transmits manipulation information to the different apparatus, and receives a set value of the different apparatus. The display unit digitally displays the set value. The controller controls an image on the display unit using the set value. In displaying change due to the manipulation step-by-step, the controller broadens a change width between steps in cases where the manipulation amount within a threshold period of time is equal to or greater than a threshold manipulation amount, as compared with cases where the manipulation amount within the threshold period of time is less than the threshold manipulation amount.

Control of at least one user interface of a vehicle is enabled. A method for controlling at least one user interface of a vehicle can comprise providing, by a system comprising a processor, user interface data of the at least one user interface, providing, by the system, user input data of an input of at least one user of the at least one user interface, providing, by the system, a user input model configured to analyze the user input data based on the user interface data and sensor data of the vehicle, processing, by the system and using the user input model, the user interface data and the user input data, and generating, by the system, user interface control data.

A vehicular display apparatus includes a display section, a pointing device, and a display control section. The display control section is configured to display an operation screen on the display section. The display control section is configured to generate an image that includes one of an object and an object group across a specified area on the operation screen, and execute processing of setting a part of the one of the object and the object group in a different display mode from the other part of the one of the object and the object group when the operation finger is recognized by a recognition section.

A trailed vehicle is provided comprising a plurality of operational components, at least one weight-sensing component, a body control module, a weight processing module, and an interface device comprising memory, a hardware processor coupled to the memory, a user interface, and a display. The user interface comprises user prompts for (i) associating particular operational components with the trailed vehicle and (ii) associating a particular weight-related parameter with the trailed vehicle. The weight processing module, the weight-sensing component, and the user interface are structured to generate an indication of vehicle weight at the user interface. The indication of vehicle weight is at least partially dependent upon the particular weight-related parameter associated with the trailed vehicle at the user interface. Additional embodiments are disclosed and claimed.

A door interior trim, a transportation vehicle, and a door handle for a transportation vehicle. The door handle includes a handle piece, a display device arranged on the handle piece, and an actuating device arranged on an indicator device, wherein the display device visualizes different function buttons based on an operating state of the transportation vehicle.

Devices and methods in a configurable human machine interface (HMI) for multiple vehicle display devices are disclosed. An example of the method includes, in the HMI control unit for a plurality of vehicular display devices, receiving action input data from a configurable application input module in a first operational mode. In the first operational mode a first vehicular display device operates as a master vehicular display device relative to a second vehicular display device. The second vehicular display device is mirrored to the first vehicular display device. When action input data indicates a transition from the first operational mode to a second operational mode, the method continues by generating a control message based on the action input data. The control message indicates that the second vehicular display device operates as the master vehicular display device and that the first vehicular display device provides mirrored feedback relating to a subsequent action input data affecting a corresponding graphic user element of the second vehicular display device.

A meter integration system, applied to a motorcycle/scooter, has a processing unit, a memory unit, a vehicular data receiving unit, a wireless communication unit and a digital dashboard. An instrument display area of the digital dashboard can display a general mode user interface and a navigation mode user interface which are mutually switchable. An indicator area is beside the instrument display area, wherein the vehicular data receiving unit can obtain the vehicular information of the motorcycle/scooter and the vehicular information of the motorcycle/scooter shown in the general mode user interface and the indicator area. The wireless communication unit can obtain navigation data and satellite positioning coordinates provided by wireless communication devices such as smart phones, or the satellite positioning coordinates can be obtained through a satellite positioning unit in the meter integration system to provide navigation functions under the navigation mode user interface.

A method for operating a human machine interface for a vehicle comprising a control unit and at least one selection area designed as a touch-sensitive surface and at least one operating area designed as a touch-sensitive surface, wherein said at least one selection area and said at least one operating area are separated from each other, has the following steps: a) a touch on at least one arbitrary contact point of said at least one operating area is recognized, a) the number of fingers touching said at least one selection area is determined, and b) a button, by means of which an input is possible, is assigned to said at least one arbitrary contact point on said at least one operating area,
wherein a function is assigned to the button, said function being selected depending on the number of fingers that touch said at least one selection area.

A display input device including: a display panel provided for the display panel; and a control unit that recognizes user operation content, recognizes a drag operation whereby a predetermined start area in the display panel is touched and, while said touch is continued, the touch position is slid towards a predetermined end area, recognizes arrival at the touch position end area as a power supply OFF command that instructs a power supply to turn OFF, and causes processing for turning off the power supply when a power supply OFF command is recognized.

A touchscreen Human Machine Interface (HMI) may be used to communicate with a machine controller which, in turn, may communicate with a variety of systems of an agricultural machine to calibrate those systems. Accordingly, the HMI, via the machine controller, may communicate and interact with various electronically controlled devices of the machine, such as a joystick, a brake pedal, a hydrostatic pump system, a steering angle sensor, a rear steering controller, and the like (such as via an ISO Bus or CAN bus) to effect such calibrations.
