<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To effectively identify an operator without making it necessary to set a new device such as a seating detecting device for identifying an operator from a passenger in a traveling object. SOLUTION: When an operator on a driver's seat or a passenger on a passenger's seat touches a display protecting board 2, the direction of the horizontal components of the pressurizing force of a finger added to the display protecting board 2 is changed according to the seating position of the person who touches this display protecting board 2. A touch type panel is normally placed between the driver's seat and the passenger's seat, and the direction of the pressurizing force is obtained as a direction drawn to the driver's seat in the case of the operation from the driver's seat, and as a direction drawn to the passenger's seat in the case of the operation from the passenger's seat. Therefore, when the direction of the pressurizing force is sensed, the operator can be identified without setting any device other than a touch type panel.</p> |
