Zusammenfassung:An input device includes a capacitive touch panel sensor capable of detecting a pressing position on an operation surface, a plurality of load sensors configured to output a sensor output depending on a load, and a control unit configured to calculate respective loads at a plurality of pressing points simultaneously pressed on the operation surface. In particular, it is possible to obtain the load of each pressing point even when the number of a plurality of simultaneously pressed pressing points is equal to the number of load sensors.
