Title:
座標入力装置および座標入力方法
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP4043178
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a coordinate input device capable of more exactly judging the contact/non-contact of a shield to the display screen of a touch panel. SOLUTION: A light receiving part for receiving reflected light, with which light emitted from a light source is reflected by a reflecting part, has two of upper and lower read lines. Each of these read line (upper and lower light receiving lines 4a and 4b) is located parallel to a display screen 31 at a different position In a direction orthogonal to the display screen 31a of a touch panel 31 (in the direction of the height) within a detection plane 5. Since the distance between the light receiving lines 4a and 4b is previously known, by measuring time for a shield 33 to pass the respective light receiving lines 4a and 4b, the moving speed of the shield 33 is known. Since the distance between the lower light receiving line 4b and the display screen 31a is known, it is known from the moving speed of the shield 33 when the shield 33 comes into contact with the display panel 31a.
