Problems solved by technology

[0007] Especially in the case of operator control devices with at least one input screen as user interface, firstly in the case of touch screens, the correct recognition of the user input is a great challenge, as is the case with mechanical user input devices or standard switches differently, does not cause a mechanical operation that can be unambiguously and easily identified by an appropriate switch, but mere proximity or inadvertent contact with an input screen can cause a change in capacitive coupling, even if no user input is desired

Abstract

The invention relates to a control device (10) for a vehicle, and to a method for operating said control device, in particular a control device (10) for controlling safety-relevant functions. The control device (10) comprises at least one control interface (12) with at least one control panel (18) for a control input and a sensor system for detecting a control input in the region of the control panel (18). The sensor system comprises at least one first, capacitive sensor device (14a) with a first, electrically conductive sensor structure and a second, capacitive sensor device (14b) with a second electrically conductive sensor structure, the sensor structures being mounted below the control interface (12) in the region of the control panel (18). The first sensor structure and the second sensor structure have a comb-like and / or meandering shape in at least one section of the control panel (18) and are arranged so as to mesh with each other.

Description
