TLDR
In this paper, the authors proposed a method to reproduce a shutter operation, having full ability of a high-class single-lens reflex camera, or the like, in a digital camera.Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make it possible to reproduce a shutter operation, having full ability of a high-class single-lens reflex camera, or the like, in a digital camera, and the like SOLUTION: The subject vibration generation apparatus has a piezoelectric actuator 25 for generating a first vibration, a vibration motor 45 for generating a second vibration different from the first vibration, and an actuator driving circuit 37 for controlling input-output of the piezoelectric actuator 25 and the vibration motor 45, wherein the actuator driving circuit 37 selects the piezoelectric actuator 25 or/and the vibration motor 45 based on an operation condition set in advance and drives the piezoelectric actuator 25 or the vibration motor 45 based on this operation condition This constitution makes it possible that a taction is dealt with vibration of the piezoelectric actuator 25 when a rapid responsibility is required and is dealt with vibration of the vibration motor 45 when a strong taction is required COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPIread more
