A display device which can achieve compatibility between the simplicity of the configuration or control of electronic equipment and the maintaining of its high operability includes: a display panel and a touch panel arranged on a front surface side of the display panel as viewed from a viewer. The touch panel includes one transparent substrate and a conductive pattern disposed on the substrate. A plurality of detection areas in each of which a touch position can be detected are provided in the touch panel. A non-detection area in which the touch position is not detected is provided between two detection areas next to each other.

Electronic equipment

A display device comprising: a plurality of pixel electrodes supplied with a pixel signal and a display functional layer configured to perform a display operation based on the pixel signal; a plurality of touch detection electrodes configured to output a touch detection signal and perform a touch detection operation; and a controller configured to control the display operation and the touch detection operation.

Display device and display method

According to an aspect, a display apparatus includes: a first substrate that has a display region having an outer periphery with a recess; a plurality of first electrodes provided in the display region; a plurality of second electrodes provided facing the first electrodes; and a wiring line. At least one of the first electrodes has a shape formed along an outer periphery of the recess in the display region. At least one of the second electrodes includes a first partial electrode and a second partial electrode provided in a manner separated from the first partial electrode with the recess interposed therebetween. The wiring line extends along the outer periphery of the recess to couple the first partial electrode and the second partial electrode.
