Abstract
A display device with a touch sensor and the like, capable of adjusting the external noise even in a state where the touch sensor is being placed on a display panel or a state where the display device with the touch sensor is being mounted into an electronic apparatus, includes a display panel, a capacitance type touch sensor provided by being superimposed on the display panel, and a distance variable mechanism which changes the distance between the touch sensor and the display panel.
Claims8
A display device with a touch sensor, comprising:
- a display panel;
- a capacitance type touch sensor which is provided by being superimposed on the display panel;
- and
- a distance variable mechanism which changes distance between the touch sensor and the display panel.
A control method using a control system which controls a distance variable mechanism provided to a display device with a touch sensor, the display device including:
- a display panel;
- a capacitance type touch sensor which is provided by being superimposed on the display panel;
- and
- the distance variable mechanism which changes distance between the touch sensor and the display panel, wherein the control system includes:
- a signal input unit which receives a detection signal outputted from the touch sensor;
- a display monitor which displays the detection signal inputted to the signal input unit;
- a drive unit which supplies a driving force for changing the distance between the touch sensor and the display panel to the distance variable mechanism;
- a control unit which electrically controls the driving force that is supplied to the distance variable mechanism from the drive unit;
- and
- an indicator unit which displays a touch position on the display panel based on the detection signal inputted to the signal input unit, the control method comprising:
- adjusting the distance between the display panel and the touch sensor by operating the control unit in such a manner that an external noise contained in the detection signal displayed on the display monitor is reduced.
