Abstract

See full text

An operation body, which includes an operation surface of a hemispherical surface, is supported so as to be capable of tilting by only a slight angle. Continuous vibration of which the amplitude is parallel to a vertical direction is applied to the operation body by a vibrating unit. When a finger comes into contact with the operation surface, an amplitude component parallel to a tangent line is generated at a contact portion of the finger by the continuous vibration. Accordingly, when the finger is moved, it is possible to obtain a feeling as though the operation surface is rotated following the movement of the finger.
