Beschreibungdescription
Geräte in einem Kraftfahrzeug werden überwiegend mittels haptischer Bedienelemente bedient. Insbesondere bei komplexen Infotainmentgeräten wie ein Autoradio und/oder Navigation stößt man dabei zunehmend auf Probleme. Die zur haptischen Bedienung nötigen Eingaben steigen in ihrem Umfang und damit auch die Ablenkung des Fahrers vom Verkehr. Dies kann zur sicherheitskritischen Situationen führen. Neue Bedientechniken wie sprachbasierte Steuerung helfen, eine Bedienung zu ermöglichen, ohne dass der Fahrer den Blick von der Verkehrsszene bzw. die Hände vom Lenkrad abnehmen muß. Dabei können aber nur beschränkte Befehlsworte erkannt werden, die der Fahrer auch erlernen muß.Devices in a motor vehicle are mainly operated using haptic controls. Especially with complex infotainment devices such as a car radio and / or navigation, problems are increasingly encountered. The inputs required for haptic operation increase in scope and thus the driver's distraction from traffic. This can lead to safety-critical situations. New operating technologies such as voice-based control help to enable operation without the driver having to take his eyes off the traffic scene or take his hands off the steering wheel. However, only limited command words can be recognized, which the driver must also learn.
Erfindungsgemäß wird daher ein Bedienkonzept vorgeschlagen, bei dem mittels einer Blickrichtungserkennung eine Steuerfunktion ausgewählt wird und mit einem haptischen Bedienelement, das vorzugsweise am Lenkrad angeordnet ist, die ausgewählte Steuerfunktion dann aktiviert wird.According to the invention, therefore, an operating concept is proposed in which a control function is selected by means of a direction of view detection and the selected control function is then activated with a haptic control element, which is preferably arranged on the steering wheel.
In Figur 1 ist schematisch dargestellt, wie die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung im Kraftfahrzeug angeordnet ist und funktioniert. Ein Fahrer 2 erhält auf einer Anzeige 3 eine Auswahl durchzuführender Aktionen bzw. Befehle. Diese können beispielsweise mit Radio, Navigation oder Klima bezeichnet sein. Diese Steuerfunktionen 'sind auf dem Ausgabeelement, der Anzeige 3, räumlich getrennt darzustellen. Die Anzeige 3 kann dabei als Bildschirm oder als Netzhautprojektor oder als- Headup-Display ausgebildet sein. Zur Wahl einer der Steuerfunktionen blickt der Fahrer
2 lediglich darauf und aktiviert die Funktion über ein haptisches Bedienelement 4, welches hier als Drucktaster am Lenkrad angeordnet ist. Eine Blickrichtungserkennung 1 detektiert die Bewegungen der Augen des Fahrers 2, so dass hierüber die Position auf der Anzeige 3 gemessen werden kann, auf die der Fahrer gerade blickt. DieFIG. 1 shows schematically how the device according to the invention is arranged and works in the motor vehicle. A driver 2 receives a selection of actions or commands to be carried out on a display 3. These can be labeled with radio, navigation or climate, for example. These control functions' are to be shown spatially separated on the output element, the display 3. The display 3 can be designed as a screen or as a retinal projector or as a head-up display. The driver looks to select one of the control functions 2 only on it and activates the function via a haptic control element 4, which is arranged here as a push button on the steering wheel. A direction of sight detection 1 detects the movements of the eyes of the driver 2, so that the position on the display 3 at which the driver is looking can be measured. The
Blickrichtungserkennung 1 ist hier als ein optischer Sensor und dabei insbesondere als Videosensor ausgebildet, d.h. die Blickrichtungserkennung 1 weist einen optischen Bildaufnehmer auf. Dieser Sensor 1 weist dabei eine Steigung der Wandlerkennlinie auf, die mit zunehmendem Lichteinfall abnimmt. Der Sensor 1 kann alternativ auch eine andere Kennlinie aufweisen.Direction of view detection 1 is designed here as an optical sensor and in particular as a video sensor, i.e. the direction of view detection 1 has an optical image sensor. This sensor 1 has an increase in the converter characteristic, which decreases with increasing incidence of light. Alternatively, the sensor 1 can also have a different characteristic.
Ein Prozessor wertet die Daten der Blickrichtungerkennung 1 aus und stellt dann auf der Anzeige 3 die ausgewählten Funktionen dar. Dabei werden die ausgewählten Funktionen optisch hervorgehoben. Dies kann durch eine räumliche Hervorhebung geschehen, also eine perspektivische Darstellung der ausgewählten Steuerfunktion, durch eine farbliche Kennzeichnung, durch optische Effekte wie Blinken oder durch andere Markierungen. Weiterhin gibt der Prozessor das haptische Bedienelement 4 frei, sobald eine Steuerfunktion auf der Anzeige mittels der Blickrichtung ausgewählt wurde.A processor evaluates the data of the line of sight detection 1 and then displays the selected functions on the display 3. The selected functions are highlighted. This can be done by spatial highlighting, i.e. a perspective representation of the selected control function, by color coding, by optical effects such as flashing or by other markings. Furthermore, the processor releases the haptic control element 4 as soon as a control function has been selected on the display by means of the viewing direction.
Figur 2 zeigt als Blockschaltbild die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung. Eine Anzeige 3 wird von einer Ansteuerung 6 angesteuert, die wiederum von einem Prozessor 7 mit Daten versorgt wird. Auf der Anzeige 3 sind hier zweiFIG. 2 shows the device according to the invention as a block diagram. A display 3 is controlled by a control 6, which in turn is supplied with data by a processor 7. There are two on display 3
Steuerfunktionen dargestellt, die einerseits mit Radio und andererseits mit Navi bezeichnet sind, wobei die Steuerfunktion Navi durch die Blickrichtung des Fahrers 2 ausgewählt wurde und dann entsprechend vom Prozessor 7 über die Ansteuerung 6 durch ein Ankreuzen eines Kreises nach dem
Wort Navi optisch hervorgehoben wurde, so dass es ersichtlich ist, dass diese Steuerfunktion ausgewählt wurde, über einen Datenein-/-ausgang ist der Prozessor 7 mit einer Ansteuerung 9 für das haptische Bedienelement 4 verbunden. Das haptische Bedienelement 4 generiert entsprechend derControl functions are shown, which are designated on the one hand by radio and on the other hand by navigation system, the control function navigation system being selected by the driver's line of sight 2 and then by processor 7 via control 6 by ticking a circle after Word Navi was visually highlighted, so that it can be seen that this control function was selected, the processor 7 is connected to a control 9 for the haptic control element 4 via a data input / output. The haptic control element 4 generates according to the
Bedienung durch den Fahrer 2 Signale, die die Ansteuerung 9 zum Prozessor 7 weitergibt, der diese verarbeitet und entsprechende Aktionen ausführt. Der Prozessor 7 gibt bei einer Auswahl einer Steuerfunktion den Drucktaster 4 zur Bedienung für die ausgewählte Steuerfunktion frei. Ist der Drucktaster 4 von dem Prozessor 7 nicht freigegeben, dann bewirkt ein Betätigen des haptischen Bedienelements 4 keine Aktion oder Ausführung. Über einen Dateneingang ist der Prozessor 7 mit einer Ansteuerung 9 verbunden, die Daten von einer Blickrichtungserkennung 1, die hier als Videosensor ausgebildet ist, für den Prozessor 7 vorbereitet. Zu dieser Vorbereitung gehört eine Umwandlung der Datenformate und gegebenenfalls eine Digitalisierung und Verstärkung.Operation by the driver 2 Signals which the control 9 passes on to the processor 7, which processes them and carries out corresponding actions. When a control function is selected, the processor 7 releases the pushbutton 4 for operation for the selected control function. If the pushbutton 4 is not released by the processor 7, actuating the haptic control element 4 does not result in any action or execution. The processor 7 is connected via a data input to a control 9, which prepares the data for the processor 7 from a line of sight detection 1, which is designed here as a video sensor. This preparation involves converting the data formats and, if necessary, digitizing and amplifying them.
