Problems solved by technology

This just makes it impossible to observe the road conditions and distracts attention, which seriously affects driving safety.
At the same time, since the buttons are located at different positions on the steering wheel or the operating panel, it is very inconvenient to operate, so that the driver cannot use the buttons as many times as he likes during driving, which reduces the driving pleasure and driving comfort.
In addition, because the driver cannot concentrate while driving, the probability of a car accident also increases.

Abstract

The invention provides a steering wheel with an optical finger navigation component. An optical finger navigation component is mounted on a steering wheel and comprises an optical finger navigation module and a host micro-controller unit, wherein the host micro-controller unit is provided with a touch screen or a display screen; the optical finger navigation module is set as a vehicular network, built-in function keys and a control terminal of a body control system; the vehicular network is used for replacing a control wire harness or wired connection; a finger moves on the surface of a housing of the optical finger navigation component; and a control module in the optical finger navigation component collects and analyzes the finger movement information so as to control the built-in function keys and the body control system. Through the optical finger navigation system, a driver can operate the optical finger navigation to realize various functions while holding the steering wheel, thereby improving the driving comfort and safety.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of steering wheel technology, in particular to a steering wheel with an optical finger navigation assembly, which can replace function buttons on the steering wheel or other function buttons installed elsewhere. Background technique [0002] At present, in-vehicle control systems, such as signal lights and turn signal control buttons, air-conditioning and wiper buttons, horn buttons, audio buttons, etc., and vehicle network control terminals, such as vehicle navigators, reversing sensors, etc., are all set as function buttons, distributed in The steering wheel of the vehicle or the operating panel at a certain distance from the steering wheel. . When the driver uses these buttons during driving, he must use the button while looking for the button position. This just makes it impossible to observe the road conditions and distracts attention, thereby seriously affecting driving safety. Simultaneously, because...
