Abstract

Electronic apparatus ( 100 ) includes a display device ( 1 ), a detecting device ( 20 ) which detects an input, a state change detecting section ( 31 ), and a control section. The control section controls the detecting device ( 20 ) so that the detecting device ( 20 ) carries out the detection more times during a non-scanning period in a case where a state change causing an improvement in detection accuracy is detected and so that the detecting device ( 20 ) carries out the detection fewer times during the non-scanning period in a case where the state change causing a deterioration in detection accuracy is detected. With the configuration, it is possible to improve detection accuracy of the detecting device while reducing electric power consumption.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. An electronic apparatus comprising:
a display device which repeats rewriting of image data while alternately repeating (i) a scanning period during which the image data is supplied to a plurality of pixels and (ii) a non-scanning period during which no image data is supplied to the plurality of pixels, the image data retained by the plurality of pixels;
a detecting device which detects an input;
a state change detecting section which detects a stat…
