After continuous research, design, and repeated prototype production and improvement, this utility model with practical value has finally been created.
[0056] Please refer to Figure 1 This utility model provides a far-viewing display component, including a far-viewing light screen 1 and a trackball control panel 2;
[0057] Among them, the far-viewing screen 1, as a key carrier for visual information presentation, undertakes the important task of displaying various images or video content with high quality. It adopts advanced optical imaging technology, which can accurately transform image information that is originally located at close range into a virtual image at a distance, thereby providing users with a wider and more comfortable visual viewing experience. Whether in driving or other application scenarios, it can ensure that users obtain a clear and realistic visual experience.
[0058] The trackball control panel 2 serves as the core interface for human-computer interaction, achieving close connection and collaborative operation with the far-viewing screen 1. This control panel possesses highly sensitive data reception and processing capabilities, enabling it to capture various operational data generated by the user through trackball operation in real time. Subsequently, utilizing built-in advanced algorithms and signal conversion mechanisms, this operational data is efficiently and accurately converted into corresponding control signals and instantly sent to the far-viewing screen 1. Upon receiving these control signals, the far-viewing screen 1 can quickly respond and adjust its display content, thereby achieving precise control and flexible interaction of the display interface.
[0059] The innovative design combining the trackball control panel 2 and the far-viewing screen 1 employed in this embodiment offers several significant advantages. From an interactive experience perspective, the blind operation capability of the trackball control panel 2 greatly enhances user convenience and comfort. Users do not need to take their eyes off the far-viewing screen 1; they can easily complete various complex command inputs and function switching simply by scrolling their fingers on the trackball. This non-line-of-sight-dependent operation method not only effectively reduces the negative experience that may arise from shifting the user's gaze but also allows users to focus more on the current visual content, thereby obtaining a more immersive interactive experience.
[0060] From the perspective of control precision, the trackball, as a high-precision input device, with its unique scrolling mechanism and sensitive sensor design, allows users to maintain precise control even when encountering complex road conditions such as bumps or vibrations while driving. This high-precision control capability enables users to easily complete various fine-tuned tasks, such as accurately selecting menu options, quickly scrolling through lists, and finely adjusting image parameters, thereby meeting the diverse control needs of users in different application scenarios.
[0061] The far-view display component proposed in this embodiment, with its superior interactive experience, high-precision control capabilities, and high practicality and promotional value, opens up a completely new avenue and direction for the future development of automotive display technology. With the accelerating trend of automotive intelligence and connectivity, this system is expected to be widely used in in-vehicle infotainment systems, intelligent driving assistance systems, and other fields, playing a vital role in improving the user's driving experience and safety.
[0062] In one embodiment of this invention, the trackball control panel 2 and the far-viewing screen 1 are connected in various ways, specifically including electrical connection and wireless connection.
[0063] In terms of electrical connection, a carefully designed cable structure enables the physical wiring connection between the trackball control panel 2 and the remote imaging screen 1. This connection method, with its stable signal transmission characteristics, ensures efficient and accurate transmission of operational data between the two. The conductive materials inside the cable undergo rigorous selection and optimized configuration, possessing excellent conductivity and anti-interference capabilities, effectively resisting interference from external electromagnetic fields and other factors, thus guaranteeing the integrity and reliability of the control signal. Simultaneously, the electrical connection exhibits excellent data transmission rate performance, meeting the real-time interaction requirements between the trackball control panel 2 and the remote imaging screen 1, providing users with a smooth, lag-free operating experience. Furthermore, the electrical connection method boasts high hardware compatibility and scalability, allowing for flexible adjustment of cable length, interface type, and other parameters according to the needs of actual application scenarios to adapt to different device layouts and installation environments.
[0064] The wireless connection relies on advanced wireless communication technologies such as Bluetooth and Wi-Fi to achieve contactless data interaction between the trackball control panel 2 and the far-viewing screen 1. This connection method eliminates the need for physical cables, greatly improving the flexibility of device installation and use. Users can freely adjust the relative positions between the trackball control panel 2 and the far-viewing screen 1 according to actual needs, breaking the limitations of spatial layout. During signal transmission, the wireless communication technology employs various advanced modulation / demodulation, encoding / decoding, and encryption algorithms, effectively improving the security, stability, and anti-interference capabilities of data transmission. Simultaneously, with the continuous development and upgrading of wireless communication technology, the wireless connection method has also seen significant improvements in data transmission rate and distance, meeting the ever-increasing interactive demands. Furthermore, the wireless connection method supports simultaneous connection and collaborative work of multiple devices, providing strong support for building more complex and intelligent in-vehicle display systems.
[0065] In summary, the electrical or wireless connection methods used between the trackball control panel 2 and the far-viewing screen 1 each have their own unique advantages and characteristics. They can be flexibly selected and configured according to the needs of actual application scenarios, thereby providing users with a better and more efficient in-vehicle display interaction experience.
[0066] Please refer to Figure 2-3 In one embodiment of this invention, the trackball control panel 2 has a carefully designed structural layout, which mainly includes two core components: the panel body 201 and the trackball 202 that closely cooperates with it.
[0067] For the main panel 201, its internal structure presents a multi-layered, integrated design concept, specifically composed of key components such as the upper housing 2011, the lower housing 2012, and the control board 2013. During assembly, the upper housing 2011 and the lower housing 2012 are precisely enclosed to form a closed and stable inner cavity 2014 through high-precision mold forming technology and reliable fixing connection methods (such as snap-fit connection, screw fastening, etc.). This inner cavity 2014 not only provides a good protective environment for the internal electronic components, effectively resisting interference from external factors such as dust, moisture, and mechanical impact, but also provides ample space for the rational layout and heat dissipation design of the electronic components.
[0068] The control board 2013, as the core control unit of the trackball control panel 2, is precisely housed within the cavity 2014 formed by the upper housing 2011 and the lower housing 2012. This control board 2013 integrates various advanced electronic components and integrated circuits, such as a microprocessor, memory, sensor interface circuits, and communication modules, possessing powerful data processing, signal conversion, and control functions. It employs high-precision printed circuit board (PCB) technology, ensuring a compact circuit layout and efficient signal transmission. Furthermore, the control board 2013 is equipped with comprehensive electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) design, effectively suppressing its own electromagnetic interference and improving its resistance to external electromagnetic interference, thereby ensuring the stable operation of the entire trackball control panel 2.
[0069] The upper housing 2011 is designed with human-computer interaction convenience and comfort in mind, and its surface is carefully designed with a groove. The shape and size of this groove match the shape of the trackball 202. After precise machining and surface treatment, it has smooth and wear-resistant properties, providing a stable and reliable mounting base for the trackball 202.
[0070] The trackball 202, a key operating component for user interaction with the trackball control panel 2, features a detachable mounting method that mates with the groove in the upper housing 2011. This detachable design not only facilitates cleaning, maintenance, and replacement of the trackball 202 but also provides convenience for product upgrades and customization. The trackball 202 integrates a high-precision optical or mechanical sensor, capable of sensing the user's scrolling operations in real time and converting the operation signals into electrical signals. Through a carefully designed electrical connection structure (such as a flexible circuit board and spring pin connectors), the trackball 202 achieves a stable and reliable electrical connection with the control board 2013, ensuring that operation signals are accurately and promptly transmitted to the control board 2013 for processing.
[0071] In summary, the trackball control panel 2 proposed in this embodiment, through its unique structural design and the collaborative work between its components, achieves efficient interaction between the trackball 202 and the control board 2013, providing users with a convenient, accurate, and comfortable operating experience.
[0072] In one embodiment of this invention, the surface of the trackball 202 is carefully designed and specially treated to present a unique anti-slip texture structure.
[0073] The anti-slip texture is not arbitrary, but designed based on ergonomic principles and extensive research into user operating habits. Its texture is rich and diverse, including regular geometric patterns such as fine stripes and grids, which provide clear tactile feedback, allowing users to clearly perceive the direction and range of the trackball 202's movement. It also incorporates irregular, uneven shapes, which further increase the coefficient of friction on the trackball 202's surface, effectively preventing slippage between fingers and the trackball 202's surface when the user scrolls rapidly or applies significant pressure.
[0074] From a material selection perspective, the anti-slip texture on the trackball 202 is made of a special material with high wear resistance and high adhesion. This material not only has excellent anti-slip performance but also good durability, able to withstand long-term, high-frequency use without easily wearing down, ensuring that the anti-slip texture maintains stable performance throughout the product's entire lifespan. At the same time, this material also has excellent surface treatment properties, enabling it to bond well with the main material of the trackball 202, preventing issues such as the anti-slip texture peeling or cracking due to material differences.
[0075] In terms of manufacturing processes, advanced injection molding, laser engraving, and chemical etching technologies are employed to achieve high-precision manufacturing of the anti-slip texture on the trackball 202 surface. These technologies precisely control parameters such as the shape, size, and depth of the anti-slip texture, ensuring high consistency and stability for each trackball 202. Furthermore, rigorous quality inspections are conducted during production. By simulating actual user operating scenarios, the anti-slip performance of the trackball 202 is comprehensively tested. Only products that pass these stringent tests can proceed to the subsequent assembly stage.
[0076] The trackball 202 features a non-slip textured surface, significantly improving the accuracy and stability of operation when using the trackball control panel 2. Whether encountering bumpy or vibrating road conditions while driving, or in special environments such as when the user's hands are sweaty or wet, the user can easily and accurately control the trackball 202's movement, enabling efficient operation of the content displayed on the far-viewing screen 1 and providing a superior and reliable user experience.
[0077] In one embodiment of this invention, the trackball control panel 2 takes into full account the complexity and diversity of actual usage environments and has been specially equipped with a dustproof and waterproof structure to ensure that it can operate stably and reliably under various harsh conditions.
[0078] The dustproof and waterproof structure, meticulously designed and optimized, is precisely positioned at the recessed opening of the upper housing 2011. This location was not chosen arbitrarily, but rather based on a comprehensive consideration of the trackball 202's installation position, user operating habits, and the entry paths of contaminants such as dust and moisture. By placing the dustproof and waterproof structure here, external dust, moisture, and other contaminants can be effectively prevented from entering the installation area of the trackball 202, avoiding interference with the normal rolling of the trackball 202 and the stable operation of the control board 2013.
[0079] Structurally, the dustproof and waterproof structure employs a multi-layered composite design. The outer layer is typically made of high-strength, wear-resistant rubber or silicone material. This material possesses excellent flexibility and sealing properties, allowing it to tightly conform to the outer edge of the trackball 202 and the groove edge of the upper shell 2011 after installation, forming an effective physical barrier to prevent the entry of larger particles such as dust and moisture. Simultaneously, the outer layer material also possesses a certain degree of elasticity, allowing it to deform accordingly with the slight displacement of the trackball 202 during its rolling motion, ensuring that the sealing performance remains consistently excellent.
[0080] The inner layer utilizes materials such as a fine filter or a waterproof and breathable membrane. The filter has a microporous structure that further filters out tiny dust particles in the air, preventing them from entering the trackball 202 and affecting the normal operation of the optical or mechanical sensors. The waterproof and breathable membrane has a unique microporous structure that allows air to circulate freely while effectively preventing moisture penetration. This design ensures airflow within the trackball 202 installation area, avoiding internal dampness and stuffiness caused by prolonged closure, while also achieving reliable waterproofing, enabling the trackball control panel 2 to adapt to various humid environments, such as rainy days and high-humidity areas.
[0081] In terms of installation process, a high-precision assembly process is used at the groove opening of the upper shell 2011 to connect the dustproof and waterproof structure. Through precise mold design and manufacturing, the dimensional matching accuracy between the dustproof and waterproof structure and the groove opening is ensured to reach an extremely high level. During assembly, multiple fixing methods, such as snap-fit connections and adhesive bonding, are employed to firmly fix the dustproof and waterproof structure to the upper shell 2011, preventing displacement or detachment due to the rolling of the trackball 202 or external impacts. Furthermore, after assembly, a rigorous airtightness test is conducted. By applying a certain amount of air pressure to the installation area of the trackball 202, any gas leaks are detected. Only products that pass the airtightness test can be put into use, thus guaranteeing the reliable performance of the dustproof and waterproof structure.
[0082] The dustproof and waterproof structure of the trackball control panel 2 effectively improves the product's environmental adaptability and service life. It not only protects the trackball 202 and control board 2013 from dust, moisture, and other contaminants, reducing the failure rate caused by environmental factors and lowering maintenance costs, but also provides users with a more stable and reliable operating experience, enabling the trackball control panel 2 to perform optimally in various complex environments.
[0083] Please refer to Figure 4 In one embodiment of this example, the trackball control panel 2 not only has basic operating functions, but also further optimizes the user experience by adding a vibration feedback module 2015.
[0084] The vibration feedback module 2015, as an important component of the trackball control panel 2, is cleverly integrated into the main panel 201 through careful design and layout. Structurally, it adopts a compact and efficient design concept, minimizing its space occupation while ensuring its own normal functioning, to adapt to the limited space layout inside the trackball control panel 2. Furthermore, in terms of material selection, materials with good mechanical properties and electromagnetic compatibility are chosen, ensuring the stability and reliability of the vibration feedback module 2015 during vibration, and effectively preventing electromagnetic interference to other electronic components.
[0085] In terms of electrical connection, the vibration feedback module 2015 and the control board 2013 achieve a stable and reliable electrical connection through a carefully designed circuit interface. As the core control unit of the entire trackball control panel 2, the control board 2013 integrates an advanced microprocessor and signal processing circuitry, enabling real-time monitoring of user actions on the trackball 202. When the user performs operations such as scrolling or clicking on the trackball 202, the control board 2013 quickly captures these operation signals and analyzes and processes them according to preset program logic.
[0086] Once the control board 2013 determines that the user has performed a valid operation, it immediately sends a corresponding control command to the vibration feedback module 2015. Upon receiving the control command, the vibration feedback module 2015 responds quickly and generates vibrations of a specific frequency and amplitude. This vibration is transmitted to the trackball 202 through a precise mechanical structure, allowing the user to intuitively feel the operation feedback. For example, when the user scrolls the trackball 202 to select a menu item, the vibration feedback module 2015 will generate a slight vibration at the moment the menu item is switched, informing the user that the menu item has been successfully switched; when the user clicks the trackball 202 to confirm the operation, the vibration feedback module 2015 will generate a more noticeable vibration feedback, clearly letting the user know that the operation has been successfully executed.
[0087] The introduction of the vibration feedback module in 2015 significantly enhances the user experience when operating the trackball control panel 2. It provides users with more intuitive and realistic operational feedback, enabling them to more accurately perceive whether their actions are correctly recognized and executed, effectively reducing misoperations caused by operational errors. Simultaneously, vibration feedback also enhances the user's sense of participation and immersion in the operation process, providing a more pleasant and smooth experience.
[0088] In summary, the trackball control panel 2 proposed in this embodiment, by adding a vibration feedback module 2015, achieves close interaction between user operation and system response, bringing users a more intelligent, efficient, and comfortable operating experience.
[0089] Please refer to this again. Figure 4 In one embodiment of this example, considering the user's needs for using the trackball control panel 2 under various lighting conditions, the trackball control panel 2 has been further optimized in terms of its functional configuration, and a lighting device 2016 has been added.
[0090] The lighting device 2016, serving as an auxiliary functional module of the trackball control panel 2, is cleverly and strategically positioned around the recess in the upper housing 2011. This placement fully considers the user's visual needs when operating the trackball 202. By arranging the lighting device 2016 around the recess, light is evenly distributed across the trackball 202 and its surrounding area, ensuring that the user can clearly see the position, surface features, and operating instructions of the trackball 202 even in low-light conditions, thus facilitating more accurate and convenient operation.
[0091] In terms of structure, the 2016 lighting fixture adopts a compact and lightweight design concept. Its outer casing is typically made of high-strength, corrosion-resistant plastic or metal materials, ensuring both structural strength and ease of installation and maintenance. Internally, it integrates multiple small light-emitting elements, such as LED beads. These LED beads have advantages such as high luminous efficiency, low energy consumption, and long lifespan, providing stable and uniform light output. Furthermore, to further optimize the lighting effect, the 2016 lighting fixture is also equipped with optical components such as reflectors and light guides. Reflectors reflect and focus the light emitted by the LED beads, improving light utilization; light guides distribute light evenly throughout the lighting area, avoiding problems such as uneven lighting and dark areas.
[0092] In terms of electrical connection, the lighting device 2016 and the control board 2013 achieve a stable electrical connection. As the core control unit of the entire trackball control panel 2, the control board 2013 possesses intelligent environmental sensing and control functions. It can monitor the ambient light intensity in real time through a built-in light sensor. When the ambient light intensity is lower than a preset threshold, the control board 2013 automatically determines that the current environment is low-light and sends an on command to the lighting device 2016. Upon receiving the on command, the lighting device 2016 immediately illuminates the LED beads to provide lighting for the trackball 202. When the ambient light intensity returns to a normal level, the control board 2013 sends an off command, causing the lighting device 2016 to stop working, thus achieving automated lighting control that meets the user's lighting needs while effectively reducing energy consumption.
[0093] Furthermore, to meet the personalized lighting needs of different users, the lighting device 2016 may also have a brightness adjustment function. Users can send brightness adjustment commands to the control board 2013 through specific operation methods (such as long press, double-click the trackball 202, etc.). After receiving the command, the control board 2013 will adjust the driving current of the LED beads according to the command content, thereby changing the brightness of the lighting device 2016.
[0094] The introduction of the lighting device 2016 greatly enhances the usability and user experience of the trackball control panel 2 in low-light environments. It provides users with a clear and comfortable visual environment, enabling them to operate the trackball 202 easily and accurately under any lighting conditions, further expanding the application scenarios of the trackball control panel 2 and making it better adaptable to various complex usage environments.
[0095] Please refer to Figure 5 In one embodiment of this example, in order to further improve the intelligence level and user experience of the far-view display component, a sensor module 3 is specially added to the far-view display component.
[0096] As a key component of the far-image display assembly, the sensor module 3 is carefully designed and strategically integrated into the overall structure. From a functional perspective, it establishes a close connection with the far-image screen 1, enabling real-time data interaction between the sensor module 3 and the far-image screen 1 through specific data transmission lines or wireless communication protocols.
[0097] In terms of ambient light intensity detection, sensor module 3 employs a high-precision, high-sensitivity light sensor. This light sensor can accurately sense the light intensity of the surrounding environment and convert it into a corresponding electrical signal. When the ambient light intensity changes, the light sensor immediately captures this change and transmits the change information to the control unit of the far-image screen 1 in the form of an electrical signal. After receiving the signal, the control unit analyzes and judges the ambient light intensity according to a preset algorithm. If the ambient light intensity is weak, the control unit will automatically adjust the display brightness of the far-image screen 1 to increase the brightness value, ensuring that users can clearly see the displayed content under different lighting conditions; conversely, if the ambient light intensity is strong, the control unit will appropriately reduce the display brightness of the far-image screen 1 to avoid excessive light stimulating the user's eyes, while also saving energy.
[0098] In terms of user gaze direction detection, sensor module 3 utilizes advanced image recognition or infrared sensing technology. By installing a camera or infrared sensor at a specific location on the far-image display component, sensor module 3 can capture the user's facial features or eye position information in real time. Using image recognition algorithms or infrared sensing principles, sensor module 3 can accurately determine the user's gaze direction. Once a change in the user's gaze direction is detected, sensor module 3 quickly transmits the gaze direction information to the control unit of far-image screen 1. Based on the gaze direction information and the mechanical structure characteristics of far-image screen 1, the control unit automatically adjusts the display angle of far-image screen 1. For example, when the user turns their head to look in another direction, far-image screen 1 automatically adjusts its angle to keep the displayed content within the user's line of sight, ensuring that the user can easily view the displayed information without frequently adjusting their head posture.
[0099] The introduction of sensor module 3 enables the far-image display component to intelligently adapt to changes in the environment and user needs. It can automatically adjust the display brightness and angle of the far-image screen 1 according to the ambient light intensity and the user's line of sight, providing a more comfortable, convenient, and efficient display experience. Whether in strong sunlight during the day or in a dimly lit environment at night, whether the user is looking directly at the far-image screen 1 or observing it from the side, the far-image display component can automatically adapt, ensuring clear visibility of the displayed content and greatly improving user satisfaction and operational efficiency.
[0100] In one embodiment of this invention, both the far-viewing screen 1 and the trackball control panel 2 adhere to the design concept of lightweight in terms of material selection, and are carefully manufactured using materials with lightweight characteristics.
[0101] These lightweight materials not only have low density, which can effectively reduce the overall weight of the entire display system and reduce the difficulty of installation and carrying, but also have good mechanical properties, such as high strength and high rigidity, which can ensure that the far-image screen 1 and the trackball control panel 2 maintain a stable structural shape under various complex working conditions and withstand certain external forces without deformation or damage.
[0102] As the core component of the display system, the far-image screen 1 bears the crucial task of presenting image information to the user clearly and accurately. Manufacturing the far-image screen 1 with lightweight materials reduces the load on the mounting bracket, improving installation stability and reliability. Furthermore, the lighter weight helps reduce vibration and shaking during vehicle operation, minimizing the impact on image quality and ensuring a consistently clear and stable visual experience for the user. In addition, the lightweight materials offer excellent heat dissipation, effectively dissipating the heat generated during operation and preventing performance degradation or damage due to overheating, thus extending the lifespan of the far-image screen 1.
[0103] As a crucial interface for user interaction with the display system, the trackball control panel 2's flexibility and accuracy directly impact the user experience. Utilizing lightweight materials in its construction makes the trackball control panel 2 easier for users to operate, reducing hand fatigue during prolonged use. Simultaneously, the application of lightweight materials also contributes to improved response speed and accuracy, enabling faster and more accurate transmission of user commands to the display system, resulting in smoother and more efficient human-computer interaction.
[0104] In summary, in this embodiment, the far-viewing screen 1 and the trackball control panel 2 are made of lightweight materials, which not only has significant advantages in reducing system weight, improving installation stability, and reducing energy consumption, but also helps to improve the overall performance of the product and the user experience.

These terms are used merely for the convenience of describing and explaining the essence of this utility model; interpreting them as any additional limitation would contradict the spirit of this utility model.
[0106] This utility model provides a remote image display component that combines a trackball control panel with a remote image screen. On one hand, the trackball control panel supports blind operation, allowing users to perform various operations by scrolling the trackball without taking their eyes off the remote image screen, effectively improving the interactive experience. On the other hand, the trackball offers high control precision; even during vehicle movement or vibrations, users can still accurately perform various complex operations, meeting diverse user control needs and further enhancing the interactive experience. This makes using the remote image screen more convenient and smooth, demonstrating high practicality and promotional value, and providing a new approach and direction for the future development of automotive display technology.
