Title:
INPUT DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/044371
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
An input device 100 having: an input unit 1 equipped with a touch panel 13; a supporting body 2 equipped with a frame section 22 surrounding the input unit 1; and an actuator 3 for vibrating the input unit 1 with respect to the supporting body 2. The input device 100 is arranged at a position offset from a position directly facing an operator 500, and the touch panel 13 is operated while being viewed from a direction that is inclined with respect to the normal direction L. When viewed from the direction of the gaze G of the operator, the entire periphery of the outer peripheral edge of the vibrating region (input unit 1) of the input device 100 is overlapped by a non-vibrating region (frame section 22). Accordingly, the gap between the vibrating region (input unit 1) and the non-vibrating region (frame section 22) is completely hidden, so visual perception is not liable to interfere and make it more difficult for the operator 500 to feel the intended tactile sensation.
