Electronic device, vibration generation program, and system using vibration patterns

An electronic device having a touch panel and comprising: an actuator that vibrates the touch panel; and a drive control unit that receives, from a server on a network, link information associating the functions of the electronic device and vibration patterns in accordance with the occurrence of a prescribed event, and, when the functions of the electronic device are selected following the occurrence of the event, applies a drive signal to the actuator, using the vibration pattern specified in the link information. The drive signal is any among: a first drive signal that repeats a sine wave of f0 × m/n (m and n being natural numbers and m ≠ n) m times, when the resonance frequency of the actuator is f0; a second drive signal being a sine wave of the actuator resonance frequency f0 and which terminates at a point other than the center of the amplitude of the sine wave; and a third drive signal being a vibration repeating m times a waveform having a phase deviated by π/2 from the sine wave of f0 × m/n (m and n being natural numbers and m ≠ n), when the resonance frequency of the actuator is f0, and terminating at a point other than the center of the amplitude of said vibration.
