See full text

The invention proposes a touch-sensitive faceplate (18) comprising: a horizontal upper panel (32); means (34) for locating the point (P) of contact of a pointing element (30) on the upper face (32s) of the upper panel (32); and means for detecting at least one control action, independently of the location of the point of contact (P) on the upper face (32s) of the upper panel (32), characterized in that it comprises means (48, 52) for producing a mechanical impulse of a vertical principal orientation on the upper panel (32), when the value of the pressure (F2) is greater than or equal to the threshold value and that is transmitted to the pointing element (30) to generate a tactile sensation in response to the control action.
