Information playback system and method for information playback
First Claim
1. An information playback system in a vehicle having a processor which generates a video or control signal and delivers the signal to a display device so that a playback of at least two different content elements in two adjacent sub-areas of a display area of the display device is initiated by the video or control signal,wherein the processor of the information playback system in the vehicle generates the video or control signal so that a boundary between the two sub-areas is movable so as to effect division of the two sub-areas:
- based on a selection of a display division touch button detected by the display device and caused by a touch of a user in one of the two sub-areas, orbased on an approach of user, detected by an input device, to one of the two sub-areas,so that a ratio of area proportions of the two sub-areas on the display area of the display device changes,wherein the at least two different content elements comprise at least two of entertainment information, vehicle condition information, communication information, or navigation data, andwherein the display division touch button switches to an enlarged representation of the display division touch button in response to the approach of user detected by the input device.

Abstract
An information playback system in a vehicle having a processor designed to generate a video or control signal and provide this signal to a display device so that the video or control signal causes a playback of at least two different contents in two adjoining subsurfaces of a display surface in a display device. The processor generates the video or control signal so that a boundary between the two subsurfaces can be shifted based on a selection detected by the display unit, or based on an approach detected by a display unit, or based on a predefined movement detected by an input device, resulting in modification of the ratio of the surface portions of the two subsurfaces on the display surface of the display device.

14. A permanently installed infotainment system of a vehicle with an information playback system having a processor which generates a video or control signal and deliver the signal to a display device so that a playback of at least two different content elements in two adjacent sub-areas of a display area of the display device is initiated by the video or control signal,
wherein the processor of the infotainment system of the vehicle generates the video or control signal so that a boundary between the two sub-areas is movable so as to effect division of the two sub-areas: -
based on a selection of a display division touch button detected by the display device and caused by a touch of a user in one of the two sub-areas, or based on an approach of user, detected by an input device, to one of the two sub-areas, so that a ratio of the area proportions of the two sub-areas on the display area of the display device changes, wherein the at least two different content elements comprise at least two of entertainment information, vehicle condition information, communication information, or navigation data, and wherein the display division touch button switches to an enlarged representation of the display division touch button in response to the approach of user detected by the input device. - View Dependent Claims (15)

16. A method for information playback, the method comprising:
-
generating and providing a video or control signal, so that a playback of at least two different content elements in two adjacent sub-areas of a display area of the display device located in a vehicle is initiated by the video or control signal, and moving a boundary between the two sub-areas based on a selection of a display division touch button in one of the two sub-areas detected by the display device so as to effect a division of the two sub-areas and caused by a touch of a user; based on an approach of a user, detected by an input device, to one of the two sub-areas, so that a ratio of area portions of the two sub-areas on the display area of the display device changes, wherein the at least two different content elements comprise at least two of entertainment information, vehicle condition information, communication information, or navigation data, and wherein the display division touch button switches to an enlarged representation of the display division touch button in response to the approach of user detected by the input device. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18)
