Disclosed herein is a controller apparatus including a vibrating body movable within a predetermined movable range thereof, an operating member operated by a user, the operating member being movably operable within a movable range thereof overlapping partially with the movable range of the vibrating body, a reception section configured to receive a vibration instruction designating generation of vibration, a detection section configured to detect a position of the operating member within the movable range thereof, and a control section configured to give vibration to the operating member by controlling a position and vibration of the vibrating body in accordance with the received vibration instruction and the detected position of the operating member. When predetermined conditions are satisfied, the control section controls the vibration of the vibrating body in a manner correcting the vibration designated by the vibration instruction.
A controller apparatus comprising:
A method for use with a controller apparatus including a vibrating body having an arm that is rotationally movable within a predetermined rotational movable range, an operating member having a front surface for pressing by a user, such that the operating member is axially movable within a predetermined axially movable range, overlapping at least partially with the predetermined rotational movable range of the vibrating body, a reception section configured to receive a vibration instruction designating generation of vibration, a detection section configured to detect an axial position of the operating member within the predetermined axially movable range, and a control section, the controller apparatus controlling method comprising:
A non-transitory, computer readable storage medium containing a computer program for use with a controller apparatus, the controller apparatus including a vibrating body having an arm that is rotationally movable within a predetermined rotational movable range, an operating member having a front surface for pressing by a user, such that the operating member is axially movable within a predetermined axially movable range, overlapping at least partially with the predetermined rotational movable range of the vibrating body, a reception section configured to receive a vibration instruction designating generation of vibration, a detection section configured to detect an axial position of the operating member within the predetermined axially movable range, and a control section, the computer program, when executed by a computer system causes the computer system to carry out actions, comprising:
