Abstract
A manipulation detection portion detects a first manipulation on the basis of a motion of an object in contact with a contact detection device. A drive control portion performs a shape control process of changing a shape of at least a part of an endoluminal device on the basis of the first manipulation. The manipulation detection portion detects a second manipulation on the basis of the motion of the object while the object is continuously in contact with the contact detection device after the detection of the first manipulation starts. The drive control portion performs a control process of maintaining a shape in which at least a part of the endoluminal device is changed on the basis of the second manipulation.
