<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an input device and an input detection method which can quickly inform a user of an input operation when the input operation is detected. <P>SOLUTION: An input device 100 comprises a touch panel (an input operation part) 1, an acceleration sensor (an input operation detection part) 2, an input determination part 3, a driving part 4 and a vibration part 5. The acceleration sensor 2 is provided to the input device 100 and generation of acceleration on the touch panel 1 immediately makes the vibration part 5 vibrate. Since the vibration starts without waiting a determination result by the input determination part 3, a user can quickly notice that an input operation is detected. Vibration continues for a fixed period of time when the input operation is valid, and the vibration is immediately stopped if the input operation is not valid. Thus, the user can know whether the input operation is valid or not valid based on the vibration time. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
