Problems solved by technology

[0003] The presence of a greater number of controls near the steering wheel, near the dashboard, or in the middle of the passenger compartment can lead to increased safety concerns as the driver has to take his or her eyes off the road in order to find a control that matches the driver's desired adjustment. functions or equipment related controls, and then adjust the controls according to the way he wishes to adjust them
[0004] In the state of the art, gesture recognition devices cannot reliably recognize gestures made, partly because of the recognition technology used and partly because of inaccuracies in the gestures made by the driver
Thus, the operation of these devices does not meet the driver's safety and comfort requirements

Embodiment Construction

[0048] It is to be understood that the accompanying drawings show the invention in a detailed manner for the purpose of applying the invention and that said drawings can obviously be used to define the invention more particularly, if necessary.

[0049] figure 1 is a schematic illustration of a vehicle interior 10 provided with a system according to the invention. The driver of the vehicle is represented by his head 12 facing the front windshield 14 of the vehicle on which an image 16 is displayed via a head-up display. In this case, the image 16 is displayed directly on the windshield 14 , however, it could eg be displayed on a translucent screen placed between the driver 12 of the vehicle and the windshield 14 .

[0050]In the context of the present invention, and for the purpose of controlling different equipment of the vehicle (such as air conditioning / heating, car stereo or hands-free phone equipment), the driver 12 can use his hands 18 to make different gestures and ges...

Abstract

The system is characterised in that, the vehicle comprising a head-up-type display (34), said system comprises a gesture recognition device (26) that can supply data representative of a gesture made by the driver of the vehicle, and a control module (28) for processing the data, the control module (28) being designed so as to be able to control the display of at least one visual feedback (30, 32) on the display, upon reception of said data representative of the gesture made by the driver.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a system for controlling at least one piece of equipment of a motor vehicle. Background technique [0002] Conventional motor vehicles are provided with a variety of equipment and features for improving driver comfort or safety including, for example, heating and air conditioning systems, car audio, hands-free telephone equipment, location and road navigation systems, and the like. This increase in equipment has resulted in an increase in the number of controls in the vehicle, typically in the form of push buttons, knobs, etc., designed to adjust or configure these various functions and equipment. [0003] The presence of a greater number of controls near the steering wheel, near the dashboard, or in the middle of the passenger compartment can lead to increased safety concerns as the driver has to take his or her eyes off the road in order to find a control that matches the driver's desired adjustment. function or equip the co...
