Abstract
In one embodiment, a touch input device includes a touch screen and is configured to perform mutually different operations with respect to a first touch and a second touch on the touch screen. The first touch is maintained during a time period equal to or greater than a first time period, wherein the first touch is maintained at a pressure less than a first pressure within the first time period. The second touch has a time interval having a pressure greater than the first pressure within the first time period. The first pressure is controlled and set by an input to the touch screen.
