Patent number: 11768553Abstract: An input device has an operative member on which switches are arranged to receive a pushing force. The input device has a control unit which is configured to store both a first correction coefficient and a second correction coefficient. The first correction coefficient may correct variations in displacement caused by differences in pushing positions on the operative member. The second correction coefficient may correct differences in sensitivity among a plurality of sensors. The control unit is configured to perform: correcting a plurality of displacements by the first correction coefficient and the second correction coefficient; and determining whether presence or absence of a push operation by comparing a summation of corrected values with a predetermined threshold value.Type: GrantFiled: November 17, 2022Date of Patent: September 26, 2023Assignee: DENSO CORPORATIONInventors: Masahiro Ito, Kazuteru Itou
