Abstract
An input device includes an input module, a detector for detecting a position of a wrist of a user, and a controller for controlling a movement of the input module based on information about the position of the wrist of the user detected by the detector.
Claims20
An input device comprising:
- an input module;
- a bio-signal sensor for detecting a position of a wrist of a user;
- a pressure sensor for sensing a position of an elbow of the user;
- an arm rest on which the user rests his/her arm;
- and
- a controller for controlling a movement of the input module based on information about the position of the wrist of the user detected by the bio-signal sensor and the position of the elbow of the user sensed by the pressure sensor,
- wherein the controller is configured to control a portion of the arm rest having the bio-signal sensor to be moved to a point located a predetermined first distance away from the sensed position of the elbow.

A vehicle comprising:
- an input module for receiving a control command;
- a bio-signal sensor for detecting a position of a wrist of a user;
- a pressure sensor for sensing a position of an elbow of the user;
- an arm rest on which the user rests his/her arm;
- and
- a controller for controlling a movement of the input module based on information about the position of the wrist of the user detected by the bio-signal sensor and the position of the elbow of the user sensed by the pressure sensor,
- wherein the controller is configured to control a portion of the arm rest having the bio-signal sensor to be moved to a point located a predetermined first distance away from the sensed position of the elbow.
4 more elements
A method for controlling a vehicle including an input module and an arm reset, the method comprising steps of:
- collecting, by a bio-signal sensor, a biological signal of a user;
- collecting, by a pressure sensor, a data of pressure of the user;
- detecting a position of a wrist of the user from the collected biological signal data and a position of an elbow of the user from the collected data of pressure;
- controlling a portion of the arm rest having the bio-signal sensor to be moved to a point located a predetermined first distance away from the detected position of the elbow;
- and
- controlling the input module to be moved to a point located a predetermined second distance away from the position of the wrist based on the detected information about the position of the wrist.
