A detection apparatus includes a sensor, a detection circuit, and a light source configured to emit light in a first color, a second color, and a third color. The detection circuit acquires a first output, a second output, and a third output that are outputs of the sensor corresponding to a period when the light in the first color is emitted, a period when the light in the second color is emitted, and a period when the light in the third color is emitted, respectively. The detection circuit adjusts at least two or more of the first, second, and third outputs based on adjustment coefficients derived so as to equalize a fourth output, a fifth output, and a sixth output. The fourth, fifth, and sixth outputs are outputs obtained when the sensor is directly irradiated with the light in the first, second, and third colors from the light source, respectively.

Detection apparatus and detection system

A detection device includes: a planar detection device including photodetection elements; point light sources provided correspondingly to the photodetection elements; a light directivity control element disposed between the point light sources and the photodetection elements; and a detection circuit electrically coupled to the photodetection elements. Each point light source corresponds to at least one of the photodetection elements. In a light amount setting mode, the point light sources are lit up at different light amounts; the photodetection elements output sensor values corresponding to the different light amounts; the sensor values that are detected are compared with a preset target sensor value; and light amounts for detection of the point light sources are set. In a detection mode, the point light sources are lit up at the set light amounts for detection; and the photodetection elements output sensor values corresponding to the light amounts for detection.

Detection device with light directivity

According to one embodiment, a display device includes a display area, a first sensor electrode, a second sensor electrode and a detector. The display area displays an image. The first sensor electrode is disposed in a peripheral area surrounding the display area. The second sensor electrode is disposed in the peripheral area and disposed adjacent to the first sensor electrode. The detector is electrically connected to the first sensor electrode and the second sensor electrode. The first sensor electrode and the second sensor electrode both have a body portion and a comb tooth portion having a plurality of linear electrodes. A comb tooth portion of the first sensor electrode and a comb tooth portion of the second sensor electrode are disposed at mutually different locations.

Display device, detection device, and watch

According to one embodiment, a display device includes a display area for displaying an image, a plurality of detection electrodes and a movable electrode. The plurality of detection electrodes are disposed in a peripheral area surrounding the display area. The movable electrode is disposed in such a way as to surround the detection electrodes and is movable around the detection electrodes. The movable electrode has a length corresponding to a length of each of the detection electrodes in a peripheral direction.

Display device

A technology which can improve the accuracy of touch detection is proposed. A display device includes: a touch panel including plural drive electrodes and plural detection electrodes; plural peripheral wirings; and plural switching elements each of which is disposed between a detection electrode and the corresponding peripheral wiring and that is connected to the detection electrode and the corresponding peripheral electrode. The touch panel executes detection by means of a mutual detection scheme using the plural drive electrodes and the plural detection electrodes. In a condition in which a predefined voltage is applied to the peripheral wirings when the plural switching elements are in an off-state, the voltages of the drive electrodes are changed, and subsequently a condition in which the changes of the voltages of the drive electrodes can be detected from the peripheral wirings is set, and the switching elements are turned from off to on.

Display device and touch panel

According to one embodiment, a display device includes a first substrate, a second substrate opposing the first substrate, a liquid crystal layer, at least one first detection electrode disposed in a display area and a plurality of second detection electrodes disposed in a peripheral area. In a display period in which images are displayed on the display area, a predetermined voltage is applied to the first detection electrode to drive the liquid crystal layer, and in a period in which the liquid crystal layer is not driven, the first detection electrode is set to a state of being not electrically connected to anywhere or being connected to a predetermined potential with an impedance of 50 k&#x3a9; or higher.

According to one embodiment, a display device includes a first substrate, a second substrate opposed to the first substrate, detection electrodes provided to surround a display area where an image is displayed, and a common electrode provided over an entire surface of the display area. The common electrode includes a first lead wiring line that extends to a peripheral area around the display area, along a boundary part between a first detection electrode, which is one of the detection electrodes, and a second detection electrode adjacent to the first detection electrode. A capacitance formed between the first lead wiring line and the first detection electrode is substantially equal to a capacitance formed between the first lead wiring line and the second detection electrode.
