DISPLAY DEVICE
A display device includes a transmission reflection member, a display panel, a sensor, an operating mechanism, and a control circuit. The transmission reflection member transmits part of incident light and reflects part of the incident light. The sensor includes a base material, a light emission element, and a light detection element. The light emission element is located on a first surface of the base material.
