Abstract

The disclosure provides systems and methods for horizon digital virtual steering wheel controller. Systems and methods are provided herein to simplify the functional offerings of vehicle control settings to those most frequently used by drivers. A virtual image of the switch set is depicted in the large information display of a vehicle, thereby showing the appropriate, context-based control functions for the task at hand. With the function graphics / instruction shown in the display, the graphics may be removed from the switch itself allowing for the user to interact with multipurpose controls that are easily understood and not limited by hard graphics printed on a switch. The use of the display may help a driver stay focused on the road.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims priority to and benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63 / 069,456, filed August 24, 2020, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. technical field [0003] The present disclosure relates to vehicle steering, and more particularly, to vehicle steering wheel controls. Background technique [0004] Steering wheel controls have become a desirable location to place features in an effort to provide quick and easy access to features deemed important to drivers and to help them stay focused on the road, such as eyes on the road and hands on the wheel . Migrating features to the steering wheel has added considerable complexity to the use of the steering wheel and its controls. [0005] Therefore, it is desirable to provide physicality at the steering wheel and provide quick, tactile, and blind steering wheel interaction in the operation of the most commonly used controls (...
