Abstract: An interactive display system for use in a vehicle is provided. A first image source presents a first image to a vehicle occupant. A second image source presents a second image that appears to be positioned between the first image and the vehicle occupant. The first and second images form a graphical user interface (GUI) associated with a user application controlling a function of the vehicle. The first image source generates a first image including at least one graphical element associated with the graphical user interface (GUI) responsive to input from the vehicle occupant from at least one user input device. The second image source generates a second image as a cursor image responsive to input from the vehicle occupant via the at least one user input device, such that the vehicle occupant can interact with the at least one graphical element.

Abstract: A displacement amount measuring apparatus for measuring the amount of the displacement of a movable member (3) with a displacement sensor (81) by extending and/or retracting a specimen (S) by an operating means (100) to displace the movable member (3) and a generated force measuring device for measuring, with a load cell, a force generated when the specimen (S) is extended/retracted. The displacement amount measuring device for measuring the extended amount and/or the retracted amount of the specimen (S) by extending and/or retracting the specimen (S) comprises the operating means (100) extending/retracting the specimen (S), the movable member (3) connected to the tip of the specimen (S), a friction reducing body (5) horizontally and movably supporting the movable member (3), and the displacement sensor (81) measuring the amount of the displacement of the movable member (3).
