ABSTRACT:
A haptic interface device includes a detection section for detecting the state of operation on an operating section performed by an operator or the position of the operating section and outputting a signal indicating the detected state or position; a driving section for electromagnetically driving the operating section to provide a reaction force to the operator; and a control section for controlling the driving section according to the signal output from the detection section and based on interface definition information in which is defined specification information for the operating section to behave as an interface apparatus. The control section produces a reaction force corresponding to the operation performed by the operator to provide an operational feeling that would be produced by the interface apparatus behaved by the operating section when operated. Thus, the haptic interface device provides operational feelings associated with various operations to the operator through their sense of touch with a single operation member.
