Title:
INPUT DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2016/075907
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
This input device has a first electrode, a second electrode, and a third electrode. The second electrode and the first electrode face each other with a space therebetween. The third electrode is spaced apart from the first electrode and is disposed so as to be rotatable or slidable relative to the second electrode. The electrical state between the first electrode and the second electrode changes as the third electrode comes into contact with, or moves away from, the second electrode. This electrical change allows a rotation operation or a slide operation to be detected.
