Abstract:
1. An electronic device comprising: a housing; a display section that is disposed inside the housing and that is capable to show contents; an electrostatic-capacitance touch panel section that allows visible light corresponding to display contents of the display section to pass through the touch panel section and that is capable to determine a two-dimensional coordinate indicated by an indicator having predetermined conductivity; a transparent member that protects the touch panel section and that allows visible light corresponding to the contents of the display section to pass through the transparent member; and a depression detecting section that detects deformation of the transparent member, wherein: if a plurality of two-dimensional coordinates are determined in order by the touch panel section and, after determining the two-dimensional coordinates, a predetermined amount of deformation is detected by the depression detecting section, then a latest two-dimensional coordinate on the basis of a time point when the predetermined amount of deformation has been detected is validated among the plurality of two-dimensional coordinates; and one or more two-dimensional coordinates other than the validated two-dimensional coordinate are not validated among the plurality of two-dimensional coordinates.
