ABSTRACT:
A haptic panel apparatus is disclosed that enables an operator to sense movement of a touch panel through touch when an input is made. The touch panel is accommodated within a base member, and an electromagnetic drive mechanism is provided between the touch panel and the base member. When the operator operates the touch panel with his/her fingertip and an input is made, the electromagnetic drive mechanism is driven to induce the touch panel to recede. In turn, the operator senses the receding of the touch panel through his/her fingertip to recognize that an input has been properly made.
