Capacitance type input apparatus and capacitance type input method

A capacitance type input method performed in a capacitance type input apparatus including a plurality of touch switches, the capacitance type input method comprising:

• determining which one touch switch among the plurality of touch switches a touch operation is performed on, based on outputs of the plurality of touch switches, wherein
• the determining includes
• performing a first comparison of comparing a first threshold used for determining whether the touch operation has been performed, with each of the outputs of the plurality of touch switches,
• performing a second comparison of comparing an output that is higher than the first threshold among the outputs of the plurality of touch switches, with a plurality of comparison thresholds that are greater than the first threshold and that are different from each other, and
• determining which one touch switch among the plurality of touch switches the touch operation is performed on, based on a comparison result obtained by the first comparison or the second comparison.
