An input interface device includes at least one processor. The processor performs control to cause, among light emitters, a first light emitter corresponding to a contact/proximity point detected by a detector to emit light with a luminous intensity higher than that of a remaining light emitter. The contact/proximity point is where an object is in contact with or in proximity to a detection surface. The processor further performs control, while the object is moving along the light emitters in a state in which the object is in contact with or in proximity to the detection surface, to gradually reduce a luminous intensity of, among the light emitters, a second light emitter corresponding to a point where the object being in contact with or in proximity to the detection surface once detected by the detector is no longer detected to put out the second light emitter in a predetermined time.

An indicator device includes a plurality of light emitters and at least one processor. The processor obtains, at intervals of a first period, a first period maximum value representing a maximum volume among a plurality of pieces of volume information based on an input signal. The processor obtains, for each second period including a plurality of first periods each being the first period, a minimum value among first period maximum values each being the first period maximum value as a second period minimum value and a maximum value among the first period maximum values as a second period maximum value. The processor controls light emission of the light emitters based on a relative ratio of a predetermined first period maximum value among the first period maximum values. The relative ratio is based on the second period minimum value and the second period maximum value.
