<p>PURPOSE: To facilitate input of an operation into a computer even if the operation is complicated by using a multipoint tactile sensor as an inputting device. CONSTITUTION: A tactile sensor 2 is constructed of first, second, and third pressure-electricity converting elements 11, 12, 13 arranged in the form of an equilateral triangle. An output 8 from the multipoint tactile sensor 2 is A/D- converted by means of an A/D converter 3 in every output of the respective pressure-electricity converting elements 11-13, and pressure information 4 for each of the pressure-electricity converting elements 11-13 is obtained. This pressure information 4 is processed into directional information 6 and controlled variable information 7 after linerization of characteristic of each of the converting elements 11-13 and digital signal processing of differential computing of data for each of a plurality of distribution points in a computing unit 5.</p> |
