Abstract

The subject of the present invention is for offering an operation equipment and an operation system that can select directly either of a plurality of indication keys arranged on an operation screen according to posture of an equipment. An inclination of operation equipment 1 is detected, and the posture signal is made to output by inclination angle detection part 6; the rotation angle of the X-axis and the Y-axis which perpendicularly intersect in parallel, mutually, with the main surface part based on the posture signal by coordinates conversion part 8 is made to compute as an X-axis rotation angle and a Y-axis rotation angle, respectively; while memorizing a cell information, which is made of the plurality of cells, in cell information memory part 11, a conversion table which corresponds each cell of cell information with the indication key is memorized in conversion table memory part 12; while specifying one cell in cell information as a current cell based on the X-axis rotation angle and the Y-axis rotation angle by cursor control part 15, the indication key, which is corresponded to the current cell, is specified by using the conversion table, and a cursor is made to be moved.
