Multi-mode haptic selector switch: BayerRecent Research Landscape

Inefficient energy distribution during high-load transitions reduces battery range and performance consistency. These innovations utilize discrete operating mode selection to optimize torque delivery and power management.

What technical problems is Bayer addressing in Multi-mode haptic selector switch?

Driver distraction from complex interfaces

(8)evidences

Manual interaction with secondary vehicle functions during driving creates cognitive load and visual diversion. Reducing the need to look away from the road or move hands from the steering wheel improves operational safety.

Driver distraction and cognitive load

(6)evidences

Inconsistent or unclear physical confirmation during control selection leads to driver distraction and input errors. Precise haptic signaling ensures the user correctly perceives state changes without visual confirmation.

Inflexible vehicle interface configurations

(5)evidences

Drivers face cognitive load or error when switching between distinct electrified powertrain states under varying conditions. Resolving selection uncertainty prevents unintended vehicle dynamics and improves safety during high-performance transitions.
