Abstract
A touch switch module according to one embodiment comprises a panel, a touch sensor and a control unit. The panel displays a slide bar. The control unit includes a slide velocity detection unit that detects a slide velocity which is a change over time in sliding when the touch moves along the slide bar and an operation information switching unit that compares the slide velocity with a predetermined threshold, that outputs first operation information as the operation information when the slide velocity is below the threshold, and that outputs second operation information that is different from the first operation information as the operation information when the slide velocity is equal to or higher than the threshold.
