A touch panel system (71a) includes a capacitance value distribution detection circuit (72). The capacitance value distribution detection circuit (72) switches a connection state between a first connection state and a second connection state, which first connection state makes first signal lines (HL1 to HLM) serve as drive lines (DL1 to DLM) and second signal lines (VL1 to VLM) serve as sense lines (SL1 to SLM), and which second connection state makes the second signal lines (VL1 to VLM) serve as the drive lines (DL1 to DLM) and the first signal lines (HL1 to HLM) serve as the sense lines (SL1 to SLM).

A capacitance distribution detection circuit includes a multiplexer, a driver, and a sense amplifier. The multiplexer switches states between a first connection state and a second connection state. The first connection state drives first signal lines in parallel so that voltages are applied, outputs, along second signal lines, a linear sum of electric charges stored in capacitors corresponding to that respective one of the second signal lines, and estimates, a capacitance of capacitors formed along that second signal line. The second connection state drives, the second signal lines in parallel so that voltages are applied, outputs, along the first signal lines, a linear sum of electric charges stored in the capacitors corresponding to that respective one of the first signal lines, and estimates, a capacitance of the capacitors formed along that first signal line.

Provided is a touch panel system (1) capable of reliably removing a wide variety of noises. The touch panel system (1) includes a main sensor (31) which detects a touch operation, a sub sensor (32) which does not detect a touch operation but detects a noise component, and a subtracting section (41) which subtracts, from an output signal of the main sensor (31), an output signal of the sub sensor (32). The subtracting section (41) performs a subtracting operation to remove a noise component from the output signal of the main sensor (31), thereby extracting a signal derived from the touch operation itself.

摘要:
An artificial nail (1) has a member made of a material having electrical conductivity. The artificial nail (1) is given electrical conductivity by mixing an electrically conductive material into plastic serving as a base material. As the electrically conductive material, a carbon-based material, such as carbon black, carbon fiber, or black lead, or a metal-based material, such as a fine metal powder, a metal oxide, metal fiber, or a whisker, is used. Alternatively, the base material for the artificial nail (1) per se is an electrically conductive resin.
