Claim 18:
19. The input apparatus according to claim 1, wherein:
said brake device is a rotary damper with two mutually pivotable components being an inner component and an outer component radially surrounding said inner component at least in certain sections;
said inner and outer components forming a ring-shaped and encircling damping gap therebetween that is radially delimited at the inside by said inner component and radially delimited at the outside by said outer component;
said damping gap is at least partially filled with a magnetorheological medium and said damping gap is selectively exposed to a magnetic field in order to dampen a pivoting movement between said two mutually pivotable components about an axle; and
at least one of said components is formed with a multiplicity of at least partially radially extending arms; and
at least some of said arms are equipped with an electrical coil with one or more windings in each case extending adjacent to the axle and spaced apart from the axle.
