    摘要: A keyboard for use with an electronic device including an electronic processor. The keyboard includes a printed circuit board that is configured to communicate with the electronic processor of the electronic device, a first plurality of physical keys, and a second plurality of dedicated physical keys. Each of the first plurality of physical keys is movable between an unactuated position and an actuated position. When in the actuated position, each of the first plurality of physical keys is configured to generate a first signal that inserts a character on the electronic device. Each of the second plurality of dedicated physical keys is movable between an unactuated position and an actuated position. When in the actuated position, each of the second plurality of dedicated physical keys is configured to generate a second signal that performs a function in a teleconferencing application running on the electronic device.

    摘要: A surface texture measuring machine includes a display section, a touch panel arranged on the display section, a key group, a display control section that causes a first setting screen to be displayed on the display section, a setting section that creates a measurement condition in accordance with an input operation on the first setting screen through the touch panel, a storage that stores the measurement condition, and an input control section that switches a state of the touch panel between a disabled state and an enabled state. When the touch panel is in the disabled state, the display control section causes a second setting screen to be displayed on the display section in accordance with the input operation through the key group and the setting section reads the measurement condition from the storage in accordance with the input operation on the second setting screen through the key group.

    摘要: An operation receiving device includes an operation unit configured to detect a position of contact of a finger of a user on a first axis and a direction of an operation of the user with the finger. The direction is orthogonal to the first axis. The operation unit is provided to have different tilt angles in accordance with the directions of the operation. The operation unit includes two tact switches that are each pushed down at any of the different tilt angles. The operation unit detects the direction of the operation on the basis of the tact switches that are pushed down. At least a portion of an operation surface with which the finger of the user comes into contact on the operation unit has a rounded shape having a shorter height than thickness from a base of a nail of the finger to a ball of the finger.

    摘要: A control device comprising a front portion, at least one button cap, and a controller. The front portion comprises a plurality of button zones each comprising a tactile switch and at least one touch sensor. The at least one button cap is adapted to attach to the control device over at least one of the button zones such that the at least one button cap is positioned over the at least one touch sensor and interacts with the tactile switch in the at least one of the button zones. The controller determines which button zone and which location of the button zone is actuated in response to a combination of signals received from at least one of the tactile switches and at least one of the touch sensors.
