<p>Continuity of coordinates between areas of a coordinate input surface which is divided into a plurality of areas is maintained. In inputting "A, B, C" on a coordinate input plate, when an input operation is started from an initial point (a), area 1 is determined as an input area, and vibration delay times are measured by using sensors (6a, 6b, 6d), thereby calculating a coordinate value. When the input operation is continued up to a terminal point (a'), the input point shifts to area 3. However, vibrations are detected by using the same sensors (6a, 6b, 6d) to calculate a coordinate value as long as the input operation is continuously performed. With this operation, since sensors are not changed for the respective areas, discontinuity of lines at the boundaries between the areas can be prevented. <IMAGE></p> |
