Zusammenfassung:There is provided an input apparatus having a configuration simple enough to be compact and capable of presenting an operator with the same real feeling of pressing as the feeling of operating a push-button switch when the operator operates a pressing-type input unit. The input apparatus includes: an input unit 12 for accepting a pressure input; a load detection unit 13 for detecting a pressure load to the input unit 12; a vibration unit 14 for vibrating the input unit 12; and a control unit 15, when the pressure load detected by the load detection unit 13 satisfies a predetermined criterion for accepting an input to the input unit 12, for controlling driving of the vibration unit 14 so as to generate a floating force on a pressing object pressing the input unit 12. The input apparatus also includes a display panel 11.
