Abstract
A man-machine interface method comprising generating physical interactions with active zones (10) belonging to an interface object (5), the active zones being associated with predetermined items of information, detecting the active zones where interactions occur by measuring at least one physical magnitude, and associating each detected interaction with the corresponding predetermined item of information. The active zones are defined for a predetermined finite length of time and they are then deactivated at the end of said predetermined length of time, and when interactions with the interface object are detected while the active zones are deactivated, the active zones are automatically redefined as a function of the first detected interactions.

A man-machine interface method comprising:
- generating physical interactions with active zones belonging to an interface object, said active zones being associated with predetermined items of information;
- detecting the active zones at which said interactions occur by measuring at least one physical magnitude;
- and
- associating each detected interaction with the predetermined item of information corresponding to the active zone where said interaction has been detected;
- the method wherein the active zones are defined for a predetermined finite length of time and then deactivated at the end of said predetermined length of time;
- and
- when interactions with said interface object are detected while said active zones are deactivated, said active zones are redefined automatically and successively as a function of the first successively-detected interactions.
