Abstract: A control system for controlling at least one function in a motor vehicle. The control system comprises the at least one switch, which generates at least one sensory signal which is assigned to a predetermined state of the switch, the at least one sensory signal being an acoustic signal or an optical signal or a combination of the two signals. The control system moreover comprises at least one detection unit configured to detect the at least one sensory signal of the at least one switch, the at least one detection unit generating a control signal. The control system furthermore comprises a control unit configured to process the control signal generated by the detection unit, the control unit being configured to initiate at least one predetermined function based on the control signal. The detection unit comprises at least two detection elements for recording the at least one sensory signal of the least one switch.

Abstract: A method for producing an upholstery element of a vehicle seat, by providing at least two plate-like nonwoven fabric elements; inserting one or more nonwoven fabric elements into a forming tool; inserting at least one additional component made of a plastic and/or a metal and/or a textile on top of the last inserted nonwoven fabric element; inserting at least one other nonwoven fabric element into the forming tool, wherein the at least one nonwoven fabric element covers the at least one additional component; closing the forming tool and injecting a vaporous fluid, such that the nonwoven fabric elements swell and are materially bonded to one another to form an upholstery element and the at least one additional component is materially bonded in the upholstery element.

Abstract: A method for producing a cushioning element of a vehicle seat, by providing at least one plate-like nonwoven fabric element; inserting the nonwoven fabric element into a forming tool; arranging an electrical cushioning heating element with at least one electrical plug in the forming tool, the electrical plug and at least one portion of an electrical cable connected to the electrical plug is received in a separate cavity formed in the forming tool; closing the forming tool, the cushioning heating element is arranged on the nonwoven fabric element; swelling and forming the nonwoven fabric element under the influence of increased pressure and elevated temperature, the cushioning heating element is connected to the nonwoven fabric element; opening the forming tool and removing the formed cushioning element with the cushioning heating element connected.

Abstract: A method for interaction with occupants of a motor vehicle, including the steps of receiving a time specification from a location remote from the motor vehicle, detecting an image using an image detection device arranged on the motor vehicle within the time specification, sending the detected image to a location remote from the motor vehicle, receiving an image from a location remote from the motor vehicle, and displaying the received image on a display device in the motor vehicle.

Abstract: A motor vehicle with a lighting device arranged on the motor vehicle. The lighting device has two flat reflection elements which are aligned with one another in such a way that their reflecting surfaces face one another and form an intermediate space. The first reflection element is arranged in a first reflection plane of the lighting device, and the second reflection element is arranged in a second reflection plane and is spaced from the first reflection element. The second reflection element is partially transparent. The first reflection element is arranged on the motor vehicle, and the lighting device has at least one lighting element which is arranged in the intermediate space in such a way that, when switched on, it emits light onto at least one of the two reflection elements. The lighting device forms a light strip.

Abstract: An air vent of a ventilation and heating module for motor vehicles has at least horizontally extending air guide vanes which can be pivoted about a first axis and which are each coupled with a coupling element. At least one air guide vane is coupled via a coupling rod to the coupling element which is displaceable relative to the first axis in a displacement direction between a neutral position and a diffuse position of the air guide vanes. The coupling rod for each air guide vane is formed as a rocker, which is coupled at one end with an air guide vane and is pivotally coupled at the other end with the ventilation and module. Each rocker is coupled to the coupling element via a sliding block guide.

Abstract: A seat control unit for adjusting a vehicle seat includes a touch sensor having a touch-sensitive fabric. The touch-sensitive fabric is disposed on a support layer which may be formed by a vehicle interior component such as the vehicle seat, an interior door panel or an armrest. The touch sensor generates signals in response to a force exerted on the touch-sensitive fabric. A control circuit is connected the touch sensor and receives the signals generated by the touch sensor. The control circuit determines a position of the force exerted on the touch-sensitive fabric and generates control signals for controlling the vehicle seat in dependence on the position of the force exerted on the touch-sensitive fabric.
