Abstract:
The present invention addresses the problem of providing an input device capable of generating a click sensation when pressed while improving the detection accuracy of a pressed portion. An input device (100) includes an operation part (30) and capacitive pressure sensors (C1, C2). The operation part (30) includes a click part (41), pressing parts (50a, 50b), and auxiliary pressing parts (51a, 51b). The click part (41) is planar and has a pressing surface (41a). The pressing parts (50a, 50b) are arranged on mutually opposite sides of the center axis (P41) of the click part (41) in a given direction that intersects with the center axis (P41). The pressure sensors (C1, C2) are arranged on the opposite side of the pressing surface (41a) of the click part (41). The auxiliary pressing parts (51a, 51b) project in a given direction from the pressing parts (50a).
