A sensor system according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a sensor module including a sensor panel arranged on a display panel; and a processor capable of driving the sensor module in a noncontact manner, wherein the processor is configured to detect a first input operation based on a detection target approaching the sensor panel, and then measure an amount of movement from a first point based on movement of the detection target in a direction away from the sensor panel after the detection target approaches the sensor panel up to the first point, and detect a second input operation based on a criterion different from the first input operation when the detection target approaches the sensor panel again after the amount of movement exceeds a threshold value.

Sensor system, method for driving sensor module and storage medium

A sensor system according to an embodiment includes: a noncontact sensor module arranged on a display module; and a processor configured to drive the sensor module, wherein the sensor module is configured to detect a first coordinate and a second coordinate of a detection target, the second coordinate is detected before the first coordinate is detected, the processor is configured to calculate move information indicating a moving direction of the detection target in the first coordinate based on the first coordinate and the second coordinate detected by the sensor module, and calculate a correction amount in the first coordinate based on the move information when the detection target approaches the sensor module and a distance between the sensor module and the detection target reaches a correction start distance.
