As shown in the figure, place the L directly below the transparent input tablet 1-.
Install CD2. With this structure, the LCD 2 located directly below the location on the tablet where input is made is lit by controlling it with a microcomputer. In this way, when an image is input on the surface of the transparent input tape notebook 1 shown in FIG. 1, the LCD 2 directly below the drawn image lights up, so that the input image can be visually confirmed.

のである。Here, we will show an example of controlling an air conditioner using this input device. As shown in Fig. 2 and Fig. 3, the vertical axis of the input tablet is environmental value, and since we are controlling an air conditioner, it is assumed to be temperature, and the horizontal axis is time, forming a control signal input device. FIG. 2 shows an example of input for heating operation using this input device. In FIG. 2, if an image as shown in the figure is input onto the input tablet 1 using a fingertip or a pen, the air conditioner operates according to the temperature control image input by the user. Therefore, we will operate to maintain the room temperature at 26°C for one hour from now, and then gradually lower the room temperature until the air conditioner is turned off at 18°C after 4 hours of operation. Further, FIG. 3 shows an example of control in the case of cooling operation. Assuming that I went to sleep around 11 PM with the air conditioner running, I kept the room temperature at 16 degrees Celsius for an hour, then gradually turned down the air conditioner for 4 and a half hours.

By half-past, the room temperature would be 19 degrees Celsius and the air conditioner would be turned off.
