ABSTRACT:
A video monitor displaying a plurality of menu screens three-dimensionally is provided. Each of the screens corresponds to a particular mode/amenity of the vehicle. Each of the screens is displayed as a collection of switches corresponding to various functions of the corresponding amenity. An input device is provided to enable the driver to select a screen, i.e., an amenity, and then select a particular switch. In the preferred embodiment the input device is formed as two joysticks commonly structured on a single lever, so that selection of a particular screen and a particular switch within that screen can be done in a single operation.
