An information input apparatus for detecting input information to output operation information to a controlled apparatus is disclosed. The information input apparatus includes a steering device having a grip part and multiple connection parts connecting the grip part and a rotation shaft. A vehicle driver inputs the input information by tapping the grip part or the connection parts. The information input apparatus further includes multiple measurement devices for measuring the vibration propagating through the respective connection parts. A controller of the information input apparatus pre-stores a correspondence between a form of the vibration, which is measured with the measurement devices, and the operation information. The controller selects the operation information from the pre-stored correspondence based on measurement signals outputted from the two measurement devices. |
