Abstract

A vehicular control unit includes a touch sensor on which a predetermined area is set, a tactile sensation presentation unit, a pressing detector, and a controller that enables operation of a vehicle mounted apparatus in response to an input to the touch sensor when pressing is equal to or higher than a first pressure. The controller is configured to: when the operation of the vehicle mounted apparatus is enabled, within a first time period, cause the tactile sensation presentation unit to present a tactile sensation corresponding to enablement of the operation of the vehicle mounted apparatus; in the case of a first slide in a direction going out of the predetermined area, cause the tactile sensation presentation unit to present a tactile sensation corresponding to the first slide; and in the case of a second slide in a direction going into the predetermined area, cause the tactile sensation presentation unit to present a tactile sensation corresponding to the second slide.
