An incremental magnetic encoder is provided which defines an encoder axis and which as a fixed body and a body movable with respect to the fixed body along at least a first direction of encoding. One of the bodies, called first body, has a first ring extending along a first longitudinal direction coinciding with an encoder axis and a first circumferential direction perpendicular to the first longitudinal direction, and defining a magnetic alternation along the first direction of encoding. The other body, called second body, has at least one first notching tooth made of ferromagnetic or magnetic material arranged opposite the first ring, and a first pair of magnetic sensors arranged opposite the first ring and configured for quantifying each movement of the movable body along the first direction of encoding.

A system for remote interaction with a pointing means of an aircraft cockpit display system, equipped with HMIs, includes three layers: a lower layer configured so as to receive wired electric power supply and data exchange connections; an upper layer comprising a hand-rest knob, at least one physical interaction means configured so as to interact on the pointing means for pointing at the HMIs of the cockpit, and a module with a touch-sensitive flat surface configured so as to interact on the pointing device for pointing at the HMIs of the cockpit and arranged in the extension of the hand-rest knob; and an intermediate layer configured so as to make it possible to modify the position of the upper layer.
