چکیده
The user interface in a modern car is very comprehensive. Most of the essential functions are just a few centimeters away from the point where the driver holds the steering wheel, and are accessed by various combinations of touches and movements. The steering column switch is an effective way of bringing together functions which allow the driver to activate the direction indicator, control the windscreen wipers or adjust the headlights without needing to move his hands far from the steering wheel while keeping his eye on the road at the same time. For this, however, drivers have had to learn the specific press and turn combinations for the required function.

متن کاملTouch Screens and Touch Surfaces are Enriched by Haptic Force-Feedback
Greek word haptikos (from haptesthai, to grasp or touch). For touch user interfaces, the term typically refers to a tactile sensation or force-feedback that users experience when touching the surface. Conventional touch screens do not provide the tactile sensation of mechanical buttons and knobs, resulting in a less satisfying experience. Haptics technology can reproduce the same feel or tactil...
متن کاملSQUEEZY: Extending a Multi-touch Screen with Force Sensing Objects for Controlling Articulatory Synthesis
This paper describes Squeezy: a low-cost, tangible input device that adds multi-dimensional input to capacitive multi-touch tablet devices. Force input is implemented through force sensing resistors mounted on a rubber ball, which also provides passive haptic feedback. A microcontroller samples and transmits the measured pressure information. Conductive fabric attached to the finger contact are...
