Abstract: An improvement in accuracy in recognition of the position and posture of input devices is achieved. The input device has a grip extending in an up-down direction, an upper portion positioned upward of the grip and having operating members to be operated by a finger disposed therein, and a lower portion positioned downward of the grip and having a plurality of to-be-tracked points disposed therein. The width of the lower portion is greater than the width of the grip. This makes it easier to dispose a large number of to-be-tracked points in the lower portion.
