Multi-mode tactile sensation providing device

摘要

Provided are a touch sensor (11), a pressure detection unit (12) that detects pressure on a touch face, a tactile sensation providing unit (13) that vibrates the touch face, a battery information acquisition unit (17) that acquires information on a battery, and a control unit (15) that switches between a first input mode, in which the control unit (15), upon the touch sensor (11) detecting contact, executes predetermined processing, and a second input mode, in which the control unit (15), upon data based on pressure detected by the pressure detection unit (12) satisfying a predetermined standard while the touch sensor (11) is detecting contact, controls the tactile sensation providing unit (13) to provide a tactile sensation and executes predetermined processing. The control unit (15) switches between the first input mode and the second input mode based on the information on the battery acquired by the battery information acquisition unit (17).

1. A tactile sensation providing device comprising:
a touch sensor; a tactile sensation providing unit configured to vibrate a touch face of the touch sensor; a battery information acquisition unit configured to acquire information on a battery; and a control unit configured to switch between a first input mode, in which the control unit, upon the touch sensor detecting contact, executes predetermined processing without providing a tactile sensation to a pressing object pressing against the touch face, and a second input mode, in which the control unit, upon the touch sensor being pushed, controls the tactile sensation providing unit to provide the tactile sensation to a pressing object pressing against the touch face and executes the predetermined processing, wherein the control unit switches between the first input mode and the second input mode based on the information on the battery acquired by the battery information acquisition unit, and wherein during operation in the second input mode, when determining that a remaining amount of the battery no longer satisfies a predetermined threshold, the control unit switches from the second input mode to the first input mode.
