other Embodiment approach

[0080] Further embodiments can provide that a plurality of operating elements are shown enlarged. For example, you can set a main focus and two sub-focus. The operating element assigned to the secondary focus is enlarged, for example, but displayed slightly smaller than the operating element assigned to the main focus.

[0081] In one embodiment, it can be provided that an operating element is actuated if the user's body part, such as a finger, remains unchanged for a predetermined dwell time without changing the displayed information. The highest possibility of manipulation (for example the manipulation element in fixed focus or in the center of the manipulation focus area) is detected. This also applies in particular if the finger is not in the actual activation area of ​​the operating element. As a result, a somewhat manipulation-free operating procedure of the manipulation element can be achieved.

Abstract

The invention relates to an interactive operating device (100) comprising a display device (35; 43; 59; 72; 102; 150; 170; 180) and to a method for operating the interactive operating device (100). Said method comprises the following steps: graphical information is displayed on the display device (35; 43; 59; 72; 102; 150; 170; 180); sensor information is captured; an operating action is activated when it is determined, using the sensor information, that a body part (36) of a user is located within an activation range that is defined three-dimensionally in relation to the representation area of an operating element (33; 61; 151; 161-169; 181 - 186) on a display device (35; 43; 59; 72; 102; 150; 170; 180), said operating element being assigned to the operating action; ; the captured sensor information comprises user information which is evaluated for determining an operating intent for the at least one operating element (33; 61; 151; 161-169; 181-186) prior to the operating action being activated; and the information represented on the display device (35; 43; 59; 72; 102; 150; 170; 180) is adapted in accordance with the determined operating intent such that the at least one operating element (33; 61; 151; 161-169; 181-186) is optimised for activating the operating action which is assigned to the operating element (33; 61; 151; 161-169; 181-186). The operating device (100) is preferably configured as a component of a motor vehicle console in order to allow the execution of the operating method.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for operating an interactive operating device with a display device according to the preamble of claim 1 and an operating device with a display device according to the preamble of claim 16 . Background technique [0002] Vehicle functions in the cockpit of the vehicle are often operated via so-called interactive controls. The interactive operating device includes a display device on which one or more operating elements are displayed in graphical form. Individual vehicle functions are assigned to the operating elements. The user moves a body part, for example a finger of a hand, towards the graphic representation of the operating element, thereby activating or triggering an action, which is referred to below as an operating action. Does the body part have to touch a sensor unit (such as a touch-sensitive film) arranged in front of the display device or integrated in the display device or is it sufficient to activate t...
