Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a technology for adequately controlling the operation of a power assist device by executing the determination taking into consideration the intention of an operator. SOLUTION: The control technology is provided for a device which is provided with an operation interface to be operated by the hand of an operator while a part including the operation interface is movable with respect to the operator. There are provided a first distance sensor capable of measuring at least the distance to an arm part of the operator, a second distance sensor capable of measuring at least the distance to a lower limb of the operator, and a computation processing means which executes the predetermined computation to the measured value by the first and second distance sensors, and outputs the first signal based on the result of the computation. The measured value by the sensors is processed by using the pre-examined data pattern when the operator extends his hand to the operation interface so that the predetermined computation operates the approaching operation interface.
