Abstract:
The present invention makes it possible to properly detect contact with an object even in a case where a contact detecting device continues to react despite not being in contact with the object. A control device includes: a detecting device control section configured to determine whether or not a condition is satisfied, the condition including (i) a state where an output value of the contact detecting device exceeds a predetermined contact threshold value and (ii) a variation in the output value falls within a predetermined range within a predetermined period after the output value exceeded the predetermined contact threshold value; and a calibration processing section configured to perform, in a case where it is determined that the condition is satisfied, at least one of the following processes (a) and (b) so as to prevent contact with an object from being detected at the output value outputted during the predetermined period: (a) a process of calibrating an output value of the contact detecting device and (b) a process of changing the predetermined contact threshold value.

Claim (Index 5):
A control device for controlling an electronic device,\n said electronic device comprising: at least one contact detecting device configured to detect contact with an object, said control device comprising: a determination section configured to determine whether or not a condition is satisfied, the condition including (i) a state where an output value of the at least one contact detecting device exceeds a predetermined contact threshold value and (ii) a variation in the output value falls within a predetermined range within a predetermined period after the output value exceeded the predetermined contact threshold value; and a calibrating section configured to perform, in a case where it is determined that the condition is satisfied, at least one of the following processes (a) and (b) so as to prevent contact with an object from being detected at the output value outputted during the predetermined period: (a) a process of calibrating an output value of the at least one contact detecting device and (b) a process of changing the predetermined contact threshold value.
