Abstract
A touch panel includes a first conductive film having separate areas, each of which has a strip shape with a length direction thereof extending in a first direction, a second conductive film having separate areas, each of which has a strip shape with a length direction thereof extending in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction, and a third conductive film, wherein the separate areas of the first conductive film are arranged side by side in the second direction, and the separate areas of the second conductive film are arranged side by side in the first direction, wherein position detection based on a capacitive method is performed by using the first conductive film and the second conductive film, and wherein a potential of a position of contact between the second conductive film and the third conductive film is detected to detect the position of the contact.
