Abstract
An operation detection device includes a detection unit to detect a physical quantity changing upon approach or contact of a detected object to or with an operation surface and to output detection information allowing for calculation of coordinates of an approach or contact position of the detected object, and a control unit to, when the physical quantity based on the detection information satisfies a predetermined condition, calculate and set first detected coordinates of the detected object as reference coordinates and does not perform coordinate update when coordinates calculated after the reference coordinates are included in a first region centered at the reference coordinates, and when coordinates calculated after the reference coordinates are outside the first region, set a second region narrower than the first region and perform the coordinate update, and when coordinates calculated after the updated coordinates are included in the second region, not to perform the coordinate update.
