Abstract: A control method of an inputter comprises an operation in which at least one of the inputter and an electronic apparatus connected to the inputter acquires reference data, an operation in which a manipulation detector of the inputter outputs a manipulation detection signal, an operation in which a light source of the inputter irradiates a first light, an operation in which a light detector detects a first reflected light that is incident to the light detector among the irradiated first light, and an operation in which at least one of the inputter and the electronic apparatus compares a detection result of the first reflected light and the reference data, and identifies whether the manipulation detector outputting the manipulation signal malfunctions, based on a comparison result.

Abstract: A display device including a display panel having a variable curvature, the variable curvature being configured to switch between a curved state and a flat state, a frame configured to fix a portion of the display panel, a sensor mounted on the frame, the sensor being configured to transmit and receive acoustic waves, and a controller configured to determine whether an object is in contact with the frame based on a signal associated with the acoustic waves, wherein, while the variable curvature is switching from the curved state to the flat state, the switching is stopped in response to a determination that the object is in contact with the frame.
