Abstract
A reaction force output device is provided with: a drive unit that drives a drive member to output a force in a direction opposite to an operating direction to an operated element operated by an operator; and a control unit that determines whether or not a space is formed between the operated element and the drive member, and if it is determined that the space is formed, controls the drive unit to output a greater driving force than when it is determined that the space is not formed.
