Display device with touch panel attached

Abstract

A display device equipped with a touch panel capable of correcting, with high precision, a line drawn upon the touch panel with an inclined touch pen or input member. A display device equipped with a touch panel includes a touch panel unit, a touch panel control unit, a pen incline information acquiring unit, a coordinate correction unit, and a display panel unit. The touch panel control unit detects a touch upon a touch panel surface, and acquires touch point coordinate information which is information for specifying a location which is touched on the touch panel surface. The pen incline information acquiring unit acquires pen or input member incline information, which is information relating to an angle which is formed by the touch pen and the touch panel surface when the touch pen and the touch panel face are in contact. The coordinate correction unit corrects, on the basis of the pen incline information, the touch point coordinate information when the line is drawn with the touch pen or input member upon the touch panel screen.
