Capacitive multi-touch gesture sensing: BayerRecent Research Landscape

Physical switch failure and driver distraction increase warranty costs and safety risks. These innovations utilize non-contact sensor arrays to enable intuitive buttonless command execution.

What technical problems is Bayer addressing in Capacitive multi-touch gesture sensing?

Driver attention distraction

(27)evidences

Traditional physical or complex interfaces require visual focus and precise motor control while driving. Reducing these demands prevents safety hazards and operational latency.

Driver distraction and tactile uncertainty

(19)evidences

Visual demand for screen interaction during driving compromises safety. Providing tactile feedback reduces the need for gaze shifts and improves operational accuracy.

Unintended input during vibration

(19)evidences

Mechanical deformation of touch-sensitive displays causes signal distortion and registration errors. Resolving this ensures reliable interaction in non-rigid or curved vehicle environments.

Inadequate occupant postural support

(13)evidences

Vehicle passengers experience physical tension and respiratory dysregulation during transit. Addressing these biological stressors improves occupant well-being and reduces travel-induced fatigue.
