  • Integrated touch screen display with multi-mode functionality
    Patent number: 10077177
    Abstract: Systems and methods include an integrated display having a graphical user interface that combines aspects of a telematic system with a vehicle control system. The integrated display combines a touch screen and a manual input keypad. Using both the touch screen's graphical user interface and the keypad, the integrated display can operate in multiple operation modes, including a touch mode where the operator controls the graphical user interface functions by touching predefined areas or tiles on the screen, and a keypad mode, where the operator controls the graphical user interface functions by touching keys on the manual input keypad. The integrated display can be controlled in a mixed mode operation, where the operator can control the graphical user interface functions using both the touch screen (touch mode) and the manual input keypad (keypad mode) to complete data entry processes, for example, and the integrated display can automatically transition between modes.
