Abstract
A touch panel system includes a touch panel including a drive electrode, a position detection electrode, and a pressing detection electrode, and a controller configured to impart a drive signal to the drive electrode and acquire signal values from each of the position detection electrode and the pressing detection electrode. The controller detects a position of an indicator on the basis of the signal values obtained from the position detection electrode and calculates a magnitude of pressing of the indicator on the basis of signal values in a pressing detection range corresponding to the detected position of the indicator among the signal values obtained from the pressing detection electrode.
