To read more about the nice Touch control knob, visit: https://www.ainonline.com/aviation-news/business-aviation/2018-05-15/bombardier-lht-dial-new-cms-global-7000

Bombardier and Lufthansa Technik are bringing OLED technology to business aviation with a new retractable side-ledge dial that will bring cabin control to passenger’s fingertips on the Global 7500. Exclusive to Bombardier’s new flagship, the dial is part of the new “nice Touch” cabin management system (CMS) that Bombardier and Lufthansa Technik have developed with a four-zone layout in mind.

Bombardier and Lufthansa Technik reached into the consumer electronics industry to develop the dial, which is nestled within the side-ledge and provides touch controls of functions within the passenger’s immediate environment, such as sound, basic entertainment system controls, local lighting, and window shade setting, among others.
