Abstract: A motor vehicle seat has a seat inflation system for selectively inflating/deflating a plurality of inflatable cushions in the seat back and/or bottom. A switch for controlling the system includes a display having a first symbol indicating a function of the cushion and a second symbol indicating a parameter of the active function, a plurality of keypads defining a circular perimeter surrounding the display and actuatable to select the active function, and a ring surrounding the perimeter and rotatable to adjust a value of the parameter.

Abstract: A system and method for controlling and selecting massage operations of a motor vehicle seat having a plurality of inflatable cushions and a control system controlling inflation of the cushions to perform a massage function. A touch-screen display is used to make inputs to the control system. The display is calibrated as a two-dimensional coordinate system on which are displayed pictograms representing a plurality of massage function blocks. To create or generate a massage program to be performed by the controller/seat, an operator drags-and-drops the pictograms on the display to respective positions in the coordinate system, thereby adjusting respective settings of two parameters of the massage function, the coordinate of the pictograms in each coordinate axis corresponding to one of the respective parameters.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method for operating a portable input device to control a motor vehicle. The input device has a pressure-sensitive touchscreen. The input device generates control signals to control the motor vehicle, and transmit said signals to the motor vehicle. The control signal has at least one determinable parameter. The input device is designed to capture a pressure value of an actuating force of the touchscreen, and determine the parameter according to the captured pressure value.

Abstract: A method and control system for maintaining attentiveness of a driver of a vehicle during an autonomous control mode. A series of cognitively demanding tasks is presented to the driver via a man-machine interface during the autonomous control mode. Driver responses to the tasks are monitored, and an audible alert is provided to the driver if the response of the driver and/or a reaction time of the driver in making the response indicate an insufficient level of driver attentiveness.
