Abstract
Provided is a tactile sense providing apparatus includes a base member and a tactile sense providing layer. The base member includes a fluid-inlet-and-outlet opening. The tactile sense providing layer forms a space between the base member and the tactile sense providing layer, the space accommodating therein fluid that flows into and out of the space through the fluid-inlet-and-outlet opening. The tactile sense providing layer includes a tactile sense providing film and a wall-formed base-member-fixed portion. The tactile sense providing film is deformed in response to the inflow or outflow of the fluid. The wall-formed base-member-fixed portion is fixed to the base member and surrounds the tactile sense providing film. The base-member-fixed portion exhibits a lower rate of deformation caused between before and after the fluid flows into the space than the tactile sense providing film.
