Abstract

An input operation device includes: an operation member to be pushed by an operator at a plurality of press positions of the operation member; a push switch to be in an on state from an off state by pushing; a panel that includes an operation surface that is to be touched by the operator and on which a plurality of symbols are arranged; an electrostatic detection sensor that includes a plurality of electrostatic electrodes provided on a surface of the panel opposite to the operation surface of the panel in an area on the panel in which the symbols are arranged in a plan view, the electrostatic detection sensor to detect an electrostatic capacitance upon approach of a finger of the operator for each of the electrostatic electrodes; and a determiner to determine which of the operation member and the symbols has been operated by the operator.
