The present invention reduces the time required by measuring a sensor object more than before. An input unit (10) includes an acquisition portion (11) that acquires a time sequence signal, a filter portion (12) that filters the time sequence signal according to a frequency, a forwarding portion (13) that forwards a filtered signal by frequency to a control device (90) and a filter switching portion (14). The filter switching portion (14) switches whether the filter portion (12) filters the time sequence signal according to a frequency in the process of acquiring the time sequence signal by the acquisition portion (11).
