Abstract
A method and device for providing a user interface includes an operator unit having multiple operator positions, in particular in a vehicle. In the method, a manual operator action for the operator unit, executed by a control element, is detected, and during the manual operator action an acceleration of at least one reference system associated with the control element or the operator unit is detected. Through the manual operator action, an input for a certain operating position is detected, the detected acceleration is used to calculate a correction for the detected operator position, and a control signal associated with the corrected operator position is generated.

11. A method for providing a user interface in a vehicle having an operator unit which encompasses multiple operator positions, the method comprising:
-
detecting a manual operator action for the operator unit executed by a control element; detecting an acceleration of at least one reference system associated with the control element or the operator unit during the manual operator action; detecting an input for a particular operator position by the manual operator action; calculating a correction for the particular operator position using the detected acceleration; and generating a control signal associated with the corrected operator position. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
