Portable Electronic Apparatus and Input Operation Determining Method
First Claim
1. A portable electronic apparatus comprising a plurality of sensor elements continuously and adjacently arranged, and a control unit monitoring operation states of the plurality of sensor elements,characterized in thatthe control unit is capable of detecting a single element detection state detecting an operation state in one sensor element out of the plurality of sensor elements, and an adjacent elements detection state detecting an operation state in two adjacent sensor elements out of the plurality of sensor elements, and determines an operation state by combination of the single element detection state and the adjacent elements detection state.

Abstract
A portable electronic apparatus 100 includes a plurality of sensor elements continuously and adjacently arranged, and a control unit 110 monitoring an operation state of a plurality of sensors. The control unit 110 is capable of detecting a single element detection state detecting an operation state in one sensor element out of a plurality of sensor elements, and an adjacent elements detection state detecting an operation state of two adjacent sensor elements out of the plurality of sensor elements, and determines an operation state by combination of the single element detection state and the adjacent elements detection state.
