Abstract
A position detection device capable of preventing an operation that is not intended by an operator from being detected as an input is provided. The position detection device includes: a detecting section that detects an indicator that performs an operation with respect to a screen, and an indicator different from the indicator; an imaging section that forms a captured image obtained by imaging a range including the screen; and a control section that detects a motion of the indicator with respect to the screen and a position of the indicator with respect to the screen based on data on the captured image of the imaging section to determine whether or not to detect an operation based on the indicator as an input.
