<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an input device where, when an operator operates a touch sensor, the touch feeling of a real click similar to the case that a push-button switch is operated is exhibited. <P>SOLUTION: The input device has: the touch sensor 11 accepting an input; a load detector 12 detecting a press load against a touch surface 11a of the touch sensor 11; a touch feeling exhibition unit 13 vibrating the touch surface 11a; and a controller 15 controlling the drive of the touch feeling exhibition unit 13 so as to exhibit the click feeling to an object that presses the touch surface 11a (pressing object) when the press load detected by the load detector 12 satisfies a criterion for exhibiting the touch feeling where after exhibiting the click feeling in the case of pressing, the controller 15 controls the drive of the touch feeling exhibition unit 13 when the press load detected by the load detector 12 satisfies the criterion for exhibiting the touch feeling so as to exhibit the feeling of releasing corresponding to the click feeling imparted to the object pressing the touch surface (the pressing object). <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT |
