Abstract
A position detection device includes a sensor having first electrodes arranged in a first direction, and second electrodes arranged in a second direction, and signal processing circuitry configured to detect a position indicated by each of a first pointer and a second pointer on the sensor. Each of the first and second electrodes is formed as a loop electrode. Selection circuitry of the signal processing circuitry is configured to select the first and second electrodes such that an electric current is induced in each of the first and second electrodes to enable a position indicated by the first pointer on the sensor to be detected through electromagnetic induction, and select the first and second electrodes such that an electric current is not induced in each of the first and second electrodes to enable a position indicated by the second pointer on the sensor to be detected through capacitive coupling.
