[Solving Means] An ultrasonic user interface device includes a transmission unit and a reception unit. The transmission unit transmits an ultrasonic wave toward an internal tissue of an arm part or a leg part of a user. The plurality of reception units is arranged so as to surround the arm part or the leg part in a circumferential direction of the arm part or the leg part to which the ultrasonic wave is transmitted and that receives, for obtaining movement information of at least a part of the limbs of the user, at least one of an ultrasonic wave obtained when the ultrasonic wave is transmitted through the internal tissue or an ultrasonic wave obtained when the ultrasonic wave is reflected on the internal tissue.
