Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2594183A1] The device (2) has a diaphragm part (3) and a key for front-side operation of a switch element that is arranged behind the diaphragm part. A film i.e. form variable artificial muscle film, is planarly arranged on an outer side of the diaphragm part, where the operating device operates suitable keys or raises operating areas from the diaphragm part in a visible and palpable manner if necessary. The switch element is arranged in an effective area of a shape-changing unit. An operating unit operates a partial elevation on outside the film and senses key operation.
