Abstract: A method where vibration information is received from a plurality of vibration sensors fixed to a steering wheel at given positions of the steering wheel. It is then determined, based on the received vibration information and expected propagation of vibration along the steering wheel, whether a user has caused vibration to the steering wheel and at which section of the steering wheel the vibration is caused. The section of the steering wheel where the vibration is caused to the steering wheel is referred to as a touch section. Responsive to the determination of the touch section, a user command is determined and a corresponding control command is sent to a controllable device so that a user can command the controllable device in a desired manner e.g. by tapping a particular section of the steering wheel.
