In-vehicle apparatus with plurality of sections each detecting an operation with a distortion detect element and can restrict malfunction caused by vibration.

摘要

An in-vehicle apparatus includes a plurality of operations sections, a detection section, and a cancellation section. The operation sections are configured to receive an operation by a user while driving of a vehicle and respectively include distortion detection elements that respectively transmit detection signals in accordance with loads generated due to the operation. The detection section detects the operation to the operation sections based on the detection signals. The cancellation section determines whether loads are generated in the operation sections in a same period based on the detection signals transmitted from the distortion detection elements and cancels the detection signals transmitted from the distortion detection elements in the same period when the loads are generated in the same period. The plurality of operating sections may be attached to a steering wheel. The plurality of operating sections may include operation planes configured to receive a touch operation from the user.
