Assignee: WACOM CO., LTD.
Field: Computer technology (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 17:
18. A position detection system comprising:
a position indicator; and
a processing circuit;
wherein the position indicator comprises:
a tracker which, in operation, causes a spatial position detecting device to detect a position of a position indicating part of the position indicator in a three-dimensional space;
a casing of an electronic pen; and
a grip part configured to be gripped by a user of the position indicator,

wherein a center axis of the casing of the electronic pen extends in a first direction,
wherein the grip part extends in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction,
wherein the tracker is completely disposed on a first side of the center axis of the casing of the electronic pen in the second direction, and the grip part is completely disposed on a second side of the center axis of the casing of the electronic pen that is different from the first side of the center axis of the casing of the electronic pen in the second direction, and
wherein the processing circuit, in operation, calculates a position of the position indicating part in the three-dimensional space, based on the position in the three-dimensional space detected by the spatial position detecting device, when the processing circuit recognizes that the casing is mounted on an electronic pen mounting part.
