Claim:
1. An input device, comprising: an input unit for input of an operating force in a direction along an operation plane; a supporting unit movably supporting the input unit such that the input unit is movable along the operation plane in response to the input of the operating force; a first actuator including a first magnetic pole forming unit and a first coil, wherein the first magnetic pole forming unit forms a magnetic pole and generates a magnetic flux passing through the first coil such that an electromagnetic force generated by applying current to the first coil acts on the input unit as an operation reaction force in a first direction along the operation plane; a second actuator including a second magnetic pole forming unit and a second coil, wherein the second magnetic pole forming unit forms a magnetic pole and generates a magnetic flux passing through the second coil such that an electromagnetic force generated by applying current to the second coil acts on the input unit as an operation reaction force in a second direction along the operation plane and the second direction is nonparallel to the first direction; and a magnetic path forming body forming a magnetic circuit that
