Abstract
According to an aspect, a detection device includes: sensors each of which includes a photodiode configured to detect light and is configured to generate an output corresponding to a degree of the detected light; and a detection circuit configured to receive the output of each sensor. The photodiode has an anode to which a reference potential is applied and a cathode to which a reset potential higher than the reference potential is applied. Each sensor is configured to generate the output corresponding to the degree of the light detected by the photodiode after the reset potential is applied to the cathode and before the reset potential is applied to the cathode again. The outputs of the sensors are received in a first period and a second period after the first period. The reference potential and the reset potential in the first period are different from those in the second period.
