    Abstract: A control circuit controls a two-wire resistive touch panel. The two-wire resistive touch panel includes a first region and a second region which are adjacent to each other in a coordinate axis direction (X direction), and the first region has resistance per unit length lower than resistance per unit length of the second region. A measurement unit measures an electric signal having a correlation with impedance between two wires which are lead out from the resistive touch panel. A processing unit (i) determines that the first region is touched when the electric signal or the impedance obtained from the electric signal is included in a predetermined first range, (ii) determines that the second region is touched when the electric signal or the impedance obtained from the electric signal is included in a predetermined second range, and generates a touched coordinate.

    Abstract: A first electrode is provided to a side wall of a container, and has a width that increases according to an increase in the depth. A second electrode is provided to the side wall of the container, and has a width that reduces according to an increase in the depth. A capacitance sensor measures a first electrostatic capacitance Cs formed by the first electrode and a second electrostatic capacitance Cs formed by the second electrode. A calculation processing unit generates water level data S2 that represents the water level, based on the measurement values S1 that represent the respective first and second capacitances Cs.

    Abstract: A control circuit controls an input apparatus to be used underwater. A sense pin is coupled to a sensor electrode arranged so as to allow the user wearing equipment to touch the sensor electrode. A capacitance sensor is coupled to the sense pin, and detects the electrostatic capacitance formed by the sensor electrode. When the electrostatic capacitance Cs detected by the capacitance sensor becomes lower than a predetermined threshold value, the processing unit judges that a touch input by the user has occurred.

    Abstract: A multi-function peripheral includes a touch panel monitor. The touch panel monitor includes a display panel and a touch panel overlaid on the display panel. In a handwriting mode, an intermediate image corresponding to an original image is displayed on the display panel. When touch input to the touch panel is detected in this state, a touch image based on the touch input is superimposed on the original image, and a new image is generated.

    Abstract: A sheet-shaped sensor is laid on the ground on which a person can walk in a barefoot state or a barefoot-equivalent state so as to allow it to come in contact with the soles of the right foot and left foot. A feature value acquisition unit derives a feature value based on a first point positioned in an inner side of a landing portion below a metatarsal bone of the right foot or left foot, a second point positioned in an outer side thereof, and a third point positioned at a landing portion below a calcaneus bone, based on an output of the sheet-shaped sensor generated when the person stands still on the sheet-shaped sensor or when the person is walking. An authentication unit authenticates the person based on the feature value.

    Abstract: A control circuit for a resistive film touch panel is provided. The control circuit comprises a first pin through a fifth pin. An A/D converter circuit is capable of selecting at least one from among the first pin through the fourth pin, and of converting the voltage at at least the one pin thus selected into a digital value. A bias circuit is capable of selectively generating a combination of electrical states including a first predetermined voltage state, a second predetermined voltage state, and a high-impedance state. A logic circuit processes an output signal of the A/D converter circuit.
