Abstract

To improve a user interface in using electronic equipment, a computer has a controller which has pressure-sensitive unit to sense a pushing pressure applied by the user of the controller to generate a pressure-sensing signal. A unit for changing the settings of various parameters in the electronic equipment is connected to the pressure-sensitive unit to change those parameters according to the pressure-sensing signal. A unit for vibrating a vibration generator of the controller in accordance with the changes in settings of various parameters is provided to transmit a 'click' sensation to the user to let the user know of the changes.
