1. A device comprising a display apparatus configured to display a graphical user interface and an input panel, the input panel comprising:
- a plurality of capacitive sensing electrodes configured to detect conductive materials of two or more points that appear at a same time in or near a plane of the input panel, and to modulate input signals to generate output signals representative of a location of an input on the plane of the input panel, the capacitive sensing electrodes including;
a plurality of first electrodes electrically isolated from each other and extending in a first direction; and
a plurality of second electrodes electrically isolated from each other and extending in a second direction different with the first direction,wherein;
each of the first electrodes is applied one of the input signals,each of the second electrodes is applied one of the output signals to detect changes in charge coupling between the first electrodes and the second electrodes,a plurality of icons are displayed on display apparatus, andeach of the icons express one of the program, data, and folder handled in a computer system.

Abstract
A user input apparatus is provided with user input means for the user to input data or a command by using the user'"'"'s human body, and use-form detection means for detecting a form in which the user uses the user input means by the user'"'"'s human body. A computer connected to the user input apparatus changes the operation of the application being executed by application execution means, according to a detection result obtained by the use-form detection means. Therefore, input operations can be performed without inconvenience even if the user cannot use one hand due to another work.
