1. An operation device comprising:
an interaction member that is used for interacting with a user;
a microphone;
a control circuit that periodically acquires scan data indicating an acting status of the interaction member; and
an audio signal processing circuit that executes a noise removal process of removing noise from a collected audio signal collected by the microphone,
wherein the control circuit periodically transmits previously acquired scan data to the audio signal processing circuit, and
the audio signal processing circuit executes the noise removal process by using the scan data transmitted from the control circuit.
