Title:
INPUT DEVICE, INPUT METHOD, AND ELECTRONIC APPARATUS
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2005173931
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To decide a user condition from performance at the time of an input operation by the user.

With the provision of a detection section for detecting a key stroke speed and key stroke intensity, an impatience condition of the user is detected from the detection results. In step S21, an input device 1 detects the key stroke intensity and the key stroke speed. Next, in step S22, a detected value KSD of the key stroke speed is compared with an average key stroke speed KSS. When the key stroke speed exceeds an ordinary key stroke speed, in step S23, a detected value KPD of the key stroke intensity is compared with a reference depressing value KPS. When the key stroke intensity exceeds an ordinary key stroke intensity, in step S24, information to be output to the user is converted. Here, the character size is set to the maximum and the characters are set to the maximum intensification. Meanwhile, in the step S22, if the key stroke speed does not exceed the ordinary key stroke speed, while the key stroke intensity exceeds the ordinary key stroke intensity, in step S26, the character size is modified larger to a certain amount.
