Abstract
According to one embodiment, a remote controller includes substantially rectangular parallelepiped first and second housings and a joint. The first housing includes operation keys on the upper surface to control an object device. The second housing includes input keys on the upper surface to input information and at least one operation button on a surface other than the upper surface. The joint joins the first housing and the second housing to be relatively rotatable about a rotation axis located at a predetermined position such that the upper surface of the second housing faces the bottom surface of the first housing. To operate the input keys, the joint is rotated to a position where a long side of the first housing and a long side of the second housing form substantially the right angle and the input keys are exposed.
