ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND CONTROL METHOD FOR ELECTRONIC DEVICE
First Claim
1. An electronic device having a display screen that displays a user interface including at least one object, comprising:
- a display mechanism that displays the user interface;
a coordinate detection mechanism that detects coordinates of a user touch point on the display screen;
a first feedback presentation mechanism that presents tactile feedback at a prescribed point to make the user perceive the presence of an object;
a measurement mechanism that measures a force generated by the user pressing the display screen; and
a second feedback presentation mechanism that detects an operation trigger based on the force and generates mechanical vibration.

Abstract
An electronic device having a display screen that displays a user interface including at least one object, comprising: a display mechanism that displays the user interface; a coordinate detection mechanism that detects coordinates of a user touch point on the display screen; a first feedback presentation mechanism that presents tactile feedback at a prescribed point to make the user perceive the presence of an object; a measurement mechanism that measures a force generated by the user pressing the display screen; and a second feedback presentation mechanism that detects an operation trigger based on the force and generates mechanical vibration.

8. A control method for an electronic device having a display screen that displays a user interface including at least one object,
the electronic device including: -
a display mechanism that displays the user interface; a coordinate detection mechanism that detects coordinates of a user touch point on the display screen; a first feedback presentation mechanism that presents tactile feedback at a prescribed point to make the user perceive the presence of an object; a measurement mechanism that measures a force generated by the user pressing the display screen; and a second feedback presentation mechanism that detects an operation trigger based on the force and that generates mechanical vibration, the control method for the electronic device including; a step of identifying, by the first feedback presentation mechanism, an object for which tactile feedback is presented, based on setting information of the user interface; a step of presenting, by the first feedback presentation mechanism, tactile feedback at a position of the identifies object in the display screen; and a step of detecting, by the second feedback presentation mechanism, the activation trigger when the force at the position of the identified object is greater than a threshold value, and generating the mechanical vibration to make the user perceive that an operation performed on the identified object has been accepted.
