Abstract
Regarding a tactile presentation panel, a tactile presentation panel that has a tactile presentation knob having a conductive member placed on an operation surface and presents a tactile sense to a user via the tactile presentation knob includes a movement amount calculation circuit that calculates a movement amount of the tactile presentation knob from current coordinates on the tactile presentation panel of the tactile presentation knob and past coordinates of the tactile presentation knob, a tactile strength calculation circuit that calculates a tactile strength to be applied to the user based on the movement amount, and a tactile presentation circuit that sets a voltage signal waveform based on the tactile strength. The movement amount is at least one of a rotation angle and a rotation speed of the tactile presentation knob.
