Abstract
A touch panel device with the tactile sense presenting function according to this embodiment includes the plurality of electrodesarranged on the single plane, and the controller. The controllerperforms a first operation and a second operation in a time division manner. The first operation includes applying the first voltage which changes temporally, to some of the electrodes, detecting voltages generated on at least some of the remaining electrodesin this state, and detecting the position of the dielectric which is in proximity to the touch panel device, on the basis of the detected voltages. The second operation includes applying the second voltage which changes temporally, to some of the electrodes, and generating electric field with the some working electrodes
