Abstract: An operating unit for a medical device is proposed. The operating unit has at least one display, at least one transparent, touch-sensitive first input field, and at least one transparent, touch-sensitive second input field. The at least one second input field is disposed between the at least one display and the at least one first input field. At least one device provides a haptically perceivable feedback after successful operation of the operating unit.

Abstract: The invention relates to an x-ray C-arm apparatus comprising an x-ray C-arm and a control facility that moves the x-ray C-arm in at least one rotational and/or translational degree of freedom depending on a control signal received. The x-ray C-arm apparatus features a user interface with a control element connected to the x-ray C-arm. The control element is connected to the user interface and enables it to be moved with at least one rotational and with at least one translational degree of freedom. The user interface detects the movement of the control element and creates the control signal depending on the movement of the control element, with the control signal representing at least the degree of freedom and/or a direction of movement of the control element, especially a direction of movement in the degree of freedom.

Abstract: The invention relates to an operating unit, especially for operating a multimedia system in a motor vehicle, comprising an operating element that can be rotated about an axis (z), that can be moved along said axis of rotation (z) and that can be locked in a position (0, 1) on said axis (z). The operating element can also be moved on an plane (x, y) that is orthogonal relative to said axis (z) in order to control the movement of a cursor that can be shown on a display in any given direction.
