A driver control input device includes first and second base members with first
and second control members each configured to support an arm of a driver and each
pivotally movable with respect to the base members in a generally horizontal plane.
The control members are operatively engaged with a steer-by-wire system such that
pivotal movement of the first and second control members causes steering control
signals to be sent to the steer-by-wire system. The control members may also be
longitudinally slidably supported with respect to the base members to generate
acceleration and braking signals.
