Abstract
An electronic pedal device at operates in a pressure operation manner and thus enables a driver to operate a pedal with a small force. It is possible to greatly change operation force of a pedal pad using an elastic material which is formed to be gradually increased in a spring constant although the operational displacement of the pedal is very small, enabling the driver to easily recognize the operation state of the pedal pad. The pedal device detects operation of the pedal through a dual detecting structure using a first pressure sensor and a second pressure sensor, further ensuring safety in response that operating the pedal.
