A vehicle human interface assembly has an interior trim portion of a vehicle, a flexible membrane, and a frame defining an opening. The flexible membrane extends over the opening such that the flexible membrane is in tension and is capable of being depressed by a user to form a depression in the membrane in a range of locations within the opening. One or more flexible membrane sensors are configured to determine the location at which the flexible membrane has been depressed by the user and provide a signal indicating the location at which the flexible membrane has been depressed. A controller is configured to control one or more systems of the vehicle based on the signal from the one or more flexible membrane sensors. The frame is provided in the interior trim portion such that the flexible membrane and a surrounding surface of the interior trim portion are substantially flush.
