<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent spread of contamination due to touching an operation panel which may have been contaminated while downsizing a device and equipment. <P>SOLUTION: The input device has an operation panel that has both a display function and an input function. The input function of the operation panel acquires three-dimensional position information of an object for performing an input operation to an operation panel existing in a space on the operation panel in a non-contact state, and recognizes input operation content by the object on the basis of the acquired three-dimensional position information of the object. The display function of the operation panel displays a button for an operation input corresponding to input operation content that can be recognized by the input function of the operation panel, and sets a contaminated area including an area where the object is recognized to touch the operation panel on the basis of the three-dimensional position information of the object to perform contamination mode display for displaying the button for an operation input arranged in an area other than the contaminated area when the object is determined to touch the operation panel. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT</p> |
