Abstract: In a method for providing a user interface in a vehicle, control objects and/or display objects can be displayed on a display surface (1) arranged in the vehicle, a gesture in a detection space (12) arranged in front of the display surface (1) is detected, the detected gesture is associated with a control object and/or display object and a control command, and the control command is carried out.

Abstract: In a method for multimode information input and/or adaptation of the display of a display and control device, input signals of different modality are detected which are supplied via the device to a voice recognition unit, thus initiating a desired function and/or display as an output signal, which are displayed on the device and/or output by voice output. Touch and/or gesture input signals are provided on or to the device for selection of an object intended for interaction and activation of the voice recognition unit and for the vocabulary which is provided for interaction to be restricted with the selection of the object and/or activation of the voice recognition unit as a function of the selected object, on the basis of which a voice command from the restricted vocabulary is added to the selected object as an information input and/or for adaptation of the display, via the voice recognition unit.

Abstract: An input device, e.g., for a motor vehicle, includes a display for displaying variable information, and a touch screen, disposed above the display, for inputting instructions by touching the touch screen, and the input device including a control system for generating a selection marking displayable on the display, and for displacing the selection marking displayed by the display according to a touching motion across the touch screen.

Abstract: An input device, e.g., for a motor vehicle, includes: a display for the visual representation of an operating element; a touch screen disposed above the display for detecting a touching contact of the touch screen in the region of the operating element; and a control system for displacing the operating element, represented with the aid of the display, according to a touching motion across the touch screen, and the input device including an actuator for deflecting the touch screen when the operating element attains a predefined position or is moved a predefined distance.
