Abstract
A method and apparatus are provided for detecting a position of an object using a position detecting device having a variable detection area. In one implementation, a method of detecting an position of the object includes determining a sensing area used to detect the position of the object from an entire area that is formed by a sensor having a plurality of linearly arranged sensing elements and in which the position of the object may be detected, visualizing the sensing area using a light-emitting element, detecting the position of the object in the sensing area, and displaying the detected position of the object on a display screen. The detection result of the position of the object is reflected on the display screen according to a ratio of a horizontal length of the display screen to a horizontal length of the sensing area.
