Abstract
A touch panel and an electronic device including the same are provided. The touch panel includes a touch panel body including a first substrate and a second substrate that is spaced apart from the first substrate, driving electrodes that are arranged on the first substrate and the second substrate, and electro-rheological fluid that fills a gap between the first substrate and the second substrate; a driver that applies a driving voltage to all or a portion of the driving electrodes; and a sensor that applies a sensing signal sequentially to the driving electrodes and senses a variation in capacitance between the driving electrodes due to a variation of the gap between the first substrate and the second substrate in response to the sensing signal.
