Abstract:
This contribution deals with an innovative concept for in-vehicle infotainment control. Therefore a touchpad with an adaptive adjustable surface is suggested. To decrease the driver distraction from driving, the idea is to give additional information of the menu content via the haptic channel by elevating shapes on the touchpad surface. A test in a static driving simulator has been conducted to compare different shapes on a touchpad surface with each other.
