In a method and a device for controlling the display on a display area of a display device in a transportation device, data are generated for the display of a background region and data for the display in a subregion of the display area. The display in the subregion covers the display of the background region, and the display content in the subregion displays at least a portion of the display content of the background region covered by the subregion in a different manner than in the background region. The subregion in the display is shifted relative to the display content of the background region, or the display content of the background region is shifted relative to the subregion, the display content in the subregion being updated in the process, so that, in the new relative position between the subregion and the display content of the background region, it continues to display at least a portion of the display content of the background region covered by the subregion in a different manner than in the background region.

Method and device for controlling the display of information in two regions of a display area in a transportation device

An operating device is for operating a computing device, e.g., an operating device is for operating a computing device for controlling functions in a motor vehicle, the operating device including a display for optically displaying information, a touch screen situated above the display, for the input of commands by touching the touch screen and/or by pressing on the touch screen, and an actuator for setting the touch screen in motion, and the operating device having an internal control system for controlling the actuator for setting in motion the touch screen in response to a touching of the touch screen and/or in response to a pressing on the touch screen, in an area of the touch screen that is provided for haptic feedback.

Operating device for a motor vehicle

In order to realize at least one application program for a vehicle, data of the vehicle is transmitted by the vehicle to an administrative unit via a wireless interface. Each application program acquires the data of the vehicle from the administrative unit via an interface of the administrative unit. Each application program thus executes a function in accordance with the data.

Method, device and system for the realization of an application program for a vehicle

In a method for controlling a display device in a motor vehicle, the display device displays a geographic map having elements which are assigned geographic positions and which are displayed on the displayed map at the geographic positions they are assigned. The relevance of the elements displayable on the map for the user is evaluated and an automatic decision is made as a function of the result of the evaluation as to which elements are displayed at the geographic positions they are assigned. A display device in a motor vehicle includes a control device, a display connected to the control device, a memory or a plurality of memories for storing data for displaying a geographic map and for storing elements that are assigned geographic positions and which are displayable on the displayed map at the geographic positions they are assigned. The display device includes a decision processor, which is connected to the control device, by which the relevance of the elements displayable on the map is able to be evaluated, and an automatic decision is able to be made as a function of the result of the evaluation as to which elements will be displayed at their assigned geographic positions.

Method for controlling a display device in a motor vehicle, and display device

In a method for controlling a map display in a vehicle, a display device is controlled such that a section of a geographical map is displayed in a spatially non-linear scale. A display apparatus for displaying a geographical map includes a control unit and a display device, connected to the control unit, a map section, the control unit including an arithmetic-logic unit by which data assigned to the geographical map is able to be converted into display data, taking a spatially non-linear scale into consideration. A navigation system includes such a display apparatus.
