Abstract
A method operates an input apparatus for an electronic appliance in a motor vehicle, by having a sensing device sense a character trace from a user while the latter draws the character trace in order to input a character or a group of characters on an input panel of the sensing device. A handwriting recognition device performs character recognition for the sensed character trace, and a display device produces a display for a result of the recognition. To allow comprehensible appliance operation by handwriting recognition in a motor vehicle, the display device also displays the character trace following the performance of the character recognition.
