Embodiment Construction

[0058] figure 1 As an example, a top view of a touch screen 5 is shown, on which a virtual user interface 1 is shown. This user interface includes a network-like structure composed of multiple elements E (in the form of icons, for example). According to usage conditions, the network-like structure can involve any system or device. In particular, it may involve illustrations of energy generation and energy distribution equipment, telecommunications equipment, power stations, process technology equipment, traffic monitoring equipment and similar equipment. Preferably, the touch screen 5 is an operating console, which is placed in a control room for monitoring the corresponding system or the corresponding equipment. The individual elements E are here components of the corresponding network or corresponding equipment. Through the touch screen 5, an operator (or a group of operators) can monitor the operation of the device and change the corresponding parameters of the single show...

Abstract

The invention relates to a user interface comprising a touch-sensitive touch screen, a special token being placed thereon. Said token comprises two disks which are interconnected by means of a ball bearing and which enable a rotation to be directly recorded by means of the token and by a rotation controller. The guiding of the rotation by the ball bearing enables the input object to have a particular haptic quality. Said ball bearing enables values to be modified rapidly up to a free running state when the upper element is accelerated and the rotation is continued once the user releases the input object based on the low friction resistance in the ball bearing, but also very precise, small adjustments in which the token provides a step-by step modification and / or screening of the rotation, such that the user receives, for each modified unit, a discrete haptic resistance via the finger-tips. Any parameters can be adjusted in a fast and efficient manner due to the tokens. The structure of a technical system can be reproduced on the touch screen, the parameters of corresponding elements of the technical system being visualized and can be modified by annular elements.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a user interface with input objects. Background technique [0002] Touch-sensitive touch screens in the form of touch- or multi-touch displays are used in a variety of applications to visualize and manipulate information. With such a touch screen, different operation actions can be implemented through the user's contact with it. One possible operation action is to touch the touch screen, for example, through a keyboard or positive / negative arrows displayed on the touch screen to change the parameter, and the value of the parameter can be changed through the keyboard or the positive / negative arrow. It turns out to be disadvantageous here that the setting of values ​​is often associated with multiple touch interactions of the user, which can easily lead to errors during input. [0003] The user interface for setting a given amount (Führungsgr??e) is now used in the control room of very different technical equipment, such as in power s...
