1. An organic LED display apparatus comprising:
- anode electrodes extending along a first direction;
cathode electrodes extending along a second direction different from the first direction;
insulating element made of an organic material arranged between one of the anode electrodes and one of the cathode electrodes;
a transmitter connected to the anode electrodes and configured to supply first signals to some of the anode electrodes sequentially in a scanning manner; and
a receiver connected to the cathode electrodes and configured to receive a second signal from at least said one of the cathode electrodes,wherein the anode electrodes in combination with the cathode electrodes are configured to alter the second signal according to a distance between an object and an intersection of a scanned anode electrode and the cathode electrodes, andwherein the organic LED display apparatus is useable as a user input apparatus by using a change of a capacitance formed between the user and the organic LED display apparatus.

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.
