<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an input device having monotonically increasing relation between pressing force and a depression amount in time of key-down to reduce a burden on a finger in time of the key-down, and using a material such that a contact face with a finger becomes soft. <P>SOLUTION: This input device comprises: an input part 105 having the elastic material on the surface; a camera for photographing a state in time of depression; an image processing part recognizing a finger position from a photographic video; and an output part generating a signal according to the finger position. Operation similar to a mouse and a keyboard is achieved to a computer 104 that is an operation target. Thereby, a problem wherein the mouse or the keyboard conventionally imparts the burden on the finger or a hand in time of the key-down and wherein a hard surface material is used is solved. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT</p> |
