INPUT APPARATUS
First Claim
1. An input apparatus comprising:
- a touch face configured to receive a touch operation;
a load detection unit configured to detect a pressure load of the touch operation on the touch face;
a vibration unit configured to vibrate the touch face; and
a control unit configured to perform a control to receive an input by the touch operation when the load detection unit detects a pressure load satisfying a standard load to receive an input, whereinthe control unit controls the vibration unit to vibrate when the load detection unit detects a pressure load satisfying a standard load lower than the standard load to receive an input.

Abstract
An input apparatus capable of preventing a user'"'"'s unintentional input by notifying the user of a change in a pressure load is provided.
The input apparatus has a touch face configured to receive a touch operation, a load detection unit configured to detect a pressure load of the touch operation to the touch panel, a vibration unit configured to vibrate the touch face, and a control unit, when the load detection unit detects a pressure load satisfying a standard load to receive an input, configured to perform a control to receive the input by the touch operation. When the load detection unit detects a pressure load satisfying a standard load, lower than the standard load to receive an input, the control unit controls the vibration unit to vibrate.

2. An input apparatus comprising:
-
a touch face configured to receive a touch operation; a load detection unit configured to detect a pressure load of the touch operation on the touch face; a vibration unit configured to vibrate the touch face; and a control unit configured to perform a control to receive an input by the touch operation when the load detection unit detects a pressure load changing from a state satisfying a standard load to receive an input to a state failing to satisfy the standard load, wherein the control unit controls the vibration unit to vibrate when the load detection unit detects a pressure load changing from a state satisfying a standard load, higher than the standard load to receive an input, to a state failing to satisfy the standard load.

3. An input apparatus comprising:
-
a touch face configured to receive a touch operation; a load detection unit configured to detect a pressure load of the touch operation on the touch face; a vibration unit configured to vibrate the touch face; and a control unit configured to perform a control to receive an input by the touch operation when the load detection unit detects a pressure load changing from a state failing to satisfy a standard load to receive a first input to a state satisfying the standard load, and when the load detection unit detects a pressure load changing from a state satisfying a standard load to receive a second input, lower than the standard load to receive the first input, to a state failing to satisfy the standard load to receive the second input, wherein the control unit controls the vibration unit to vibrate when the load detection unit detects a pressure load changing from a state failing to satisfy a standard load, lower than the standard load to receive the second input, to a state satisfying the standard load, and when the load detection unit detects a pressure load changing from a state satisfying another standard load, higher than the standard load to receive the second input, to a state failing to satisfy the another standard load. - View Dependent Claims (4, 5)
