Claim Text:
1. A driving device comprising: a storage unit configured to store waveform data of a waveform of a driving signal for stopping excitation of an actuator, wherein the waveform of the driving signal is a sinusoidal waveform of a resonance frequency of the actuator, the sinusoidal waveform ending at a portion other than a center point of an amplitude of the sinusoidal waveform; and a processor programmed to execute a process including reading the waveform data stored in the storage unit and outputting, to the actuator, the driving signal corresponding to the waveform data that has been read, wherein the sinusoidal waveform ends at a peak or a point close to the peak of the amplitude of the sinusoidal waveform.
