Abstract: An operation pad (20) has an exterior plate (21) having a light-emitting unit (E1) and a touch sensor substrate (22) attached to the rear surface of the exterior plate (21). In addition, the operation pad (20) has a light source (S1) attached to the rear surface thereof and a light diffusion member (H1) that is an optical path through which light of the light source (S1) passes toward the light-emitting unit (E1). According to the structure, the structure for allowing the light-emitting unit provided on the operation pad to shine can be downsized.

Abstract: An improvement is achieved in workability in an operation of assembling an operation input device having a function of applying a reaction force in response to a movement of an operation button. An input device (100) has an operation button (20), a movable member (30) capable of pushing the operation button (20) toward an initial position, and an electric motor (35) that moves the movable member (30). The input device (100) has a holder (40) that holds the electric motor (35). The holder (40) supports the operation button (20) and the movable member (30) so as to permit movement of the operation button (20) and the movable member (30).

Abstract: An influence of hands holding an input device or fingers manipulating operation members on sound collection by a microphone is reduced. An input device (10) has a right held portion (10R) that has an upper surface on which an operation button (11) to be operated by a finger in the right hand is disposed, a left held portion (10L) that has an upper surface on which a direction key (12) to be operated by a finger in the left hand is disposed, and a middle portion (10M) positioned between the right held portion (10R) and the left held portion (10L). A first microphone (21) and a second microphone (22) are arranged in the middle portion (10M). The first microphone (21) is positioned rearward of a center of the middle portion (10M) in a front-rear direction.

Abstract: An operating device includes: right and left hold sections to be held by a user, the right and left hold sections provided with first operating members; and a central section interconnecting the right and left hold sections. The operating device has a second operating member forming an upper surface of the central section. The second operating member includes a touch sensor located between the first operating members of the right and left hold sections, and is so supported as to be capable of vertical movement in response to a user's pressing-down operation. The second operating member is plate-like in shape, so that user's fingers can easily reach the second operating member in a condition where the user is holding the hold sections. As a result, operability of the operating device can be enhanced.
