In a detection device, a drive circuit supplies, to a first sensor electrode, a drive signal (second drive signal) of a different frequency in each of multiple detection periods. A detection circuit performs detection of proximity of an object, based on a detection signal (second detection signal) received from a second sensor electrode disposed in the vicinity of the first sensor electrode in each of the multiple detection periods.

Detection device, detection system, and detection method

A display device includes multiple gate lines, multiple source lines, multiple pixel electrodes provided respectively in regions defined by the multiple gate lines and the multiple source lines, and multiple common electrodes provided to face the multiple pixel electrodes and used for both image display and touch detection. A second drive circuit supplies a touch drive signal to each of the multiple common electrodes. A touch detection circuit performs detection of a touch by an object on the display device, based on a touch detection signal received from each of the multiple common electrodes. The display device includes multiple touch detection regions. Among the multiple common electrodes, multiple common electrodes are arranged in each of the touch detection regions. In the display system, touch detection is performed in part of the multiple touch detection regions, and touch detection is not performed in rest of the multiple touch detection regions.
