    Patent number: 11533813
    Abstract: A bezel for overhead panels provides a grip or hand rest so the pilot is not required to maintain a hand at a specific overhead location in space to interactive with a touchscreen display device.

In a further aspect, the bezel includes features at known locations to tactilely identify the location. Such features may include indentations or protrusions.
