A tactile sensation providing apparatus includes a touch sensor 11, a tactile sensation providing unit 13 configured to vibrate a touch face of the touch sensor 11, a tactile sensation provision control unit 14 configured to control drive of the tactile sensation providing unit 13, and a main control unit 17 configured to control an operation of the tactile sensation provision control unit 14 based on an output of the touch sensor 11. The main control unit 17 determines whether an object is touching a predetermined area of the touch face based on the output of the touch sensor 11, and starts the operation of the tactile sensation provision control unit 14 when determining that the object is touching the predetermined area, or stops the operation of the tactile sensation provision control unit 14 when determining that the object is not touching the predetermined area.
摘要:
A tactile sensation is provided without exchanging a signal indicating a pressing load between a dual chip. A tactile sensation providing apparatus includes a touch sensor, a load detection unit for detecting a pressing load on the sensor, a tactile sensation providing unit for vibrating a face of the sensor, a tactile sensation provision control unit for controlling drive of the providing unit, and a main control unit for controlling an operation of the provision control unit based on an output of the sensor. The main control unit determines whether a predetermined area of the touch face is touched based on the output of the sensor and, when the area is touched, transmits a tactile sensation control instruction to the provision control unit. The provision control unit, upon receiving the instruction from the main control unit, controls drive of the providing unit based on the instruction and the pressing load.

By dual chips exchanging a signal indicating a pressing load detected for providing the tactile sensation, application process based thereon is performed. A tactile sensation providing apparatus includes a touch sensor, a load detection unit for detecting the pressing load on the sensor for providing the sensation, a tactile sensation providing unit for vibrating a surface the sensor, a provision control unit for controlling drive of the providing unit, and a main control unit for controlling an application. The main control unit determines whether a predetermined area of the surface is touched based on an output of the sensor and, when touched, transmits an instruction to the provision control unit. The provision control unit, upon receiving the instruction from the main control unit, detects the pressing load and transmits the detected load to the main control unit. The main control unit, based on the load, performs the application process.
摘要:
Dual chips exchange a signal indicating a pressing load detected for providing the tactile sensation such that application processing based on the load is performed. A tactile sensation providing apparatus includes a touch sensor, a load detection unit for detecting the load on the sensor for providing the tactile sensation, a tactile sensation providing unit for vibrating a touch face of the sensor, a tactile sensation provision control unit for controlling drive of the providing unit, and a main control unit for controlling performing an operation corresponding to the load. The main control unit transmits, to the provision control unit, a load detection instruction in activation of the application and a load stop instruction in closing the application. The provision control unit starts detecting the load upon receiving the detection instruction and stops detecting the load upon receiving the stop instruction.
