<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an operator identification device and an operator identification method capable of identifying an occupant of operating an onboard device. <P>SOLUTION: This operator identification device 1 has a first oscillator 11 outputting a first identification signal, a second oscillator 12 outputting a second identification signal, a detector 16, a third electrode 15 arranged in an operation part 20 and transmitting the first identification signal or the second identification signal to the detector 16 when a first operator or a second operator contacts, and a controller 18. The controller 18 determines that the first and second operators participate in operation when the detector 16 detects the first identification signal via the first and second operators, determines that the first operator operates an operation part 20 when the detector 16 detects the first identification signal via the electrode 15 when the first identification signal is not detected via the first and second operators, and determines that the second operator operates the operation part 20 when detecting the second identification signal. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT |
