Abstract
An input device includes: an input detector that detects a portion of a detection surface pressed by a position specifying object via a sheet placed on the detection surface; a correction information acquisitor that acquires correction information to correct a difference between a shape of a contact portion of the position specifying object in contact with the sheet and a shape of a portion pressed by the contact portion detected by the input detector; and a corrector that corrects a value detected by the input detector on the basis of the correction information acquired by the correction information acquisitor.
