WATCH COMPRISING AN AUXILIARY FUNCTION ALLOWING THE INDICATION OF SECONDS

An analogue display watch (10) including an electronic horological movement including a first and a second electric motor (13, 14) kinematically connected respectively to an hour hand (15) and to a minute hand (16), the electric motors being power supplied by an electric accumulator (12), the horological movement also comprising an integrated circuit (17) connected to the motors and to a control member (18), the watch (10) being characterised in that the integrated circuit (17) is configured so as to control, when the control member (18) is requested by a user, the first and the second electric motor (13, 14) to rotate the hour (15) and minute (16) hands at an angular speed of displacement of six degrees per second, and in such a way that they are disposed so as to be collinear and that they are superimposed on each other.

APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING VEHICLE

An apparatus and a method for controlling a vehicle may include at least two buttons provided on a steering wheel, a processor electrically connected to the at least two buttons, and storage that stores instructions executed by the processor, wherein the processor may map and set a vehicle function to the at least two buttons, detect a button manipulated among the at least two buttons, and perform a vehicle function mapped to the manipulated button based on the vehicle function mapped to the operated button and a current vehicle state.

POINTER CONTROLLER AND POINTER CONTROL METHOD

A pointer controller includes at least one processor; and a display that includes a pointer. The at least one processor is configured to control the display so as to display an elapsed time, switching between (i) a first display mode for display of the elapsed time cumulatively by causing, upon resumption of display, movement of the pointer that inherits a previous display time and (ii) a second display mode for display of the elapsed time non-cumulatively by causing, upon resumption of display, movement of the pointer that does not inherit the previous display time. The movement of the pointer controlled by the at least one processor is such that the first display mode and the second display mode differ from each other in a way of movement that indicates how the pointer moves.
