Abstract

An input device making little false sensing is provided. An input device capable of outputting a signal in which input data in a plurality of regions are combined is provided. The input device includes a first region and a second region which are provided so as to face each other. The input device includes a means for obtaining first positional data input to the first region, a means for obtaining second positional data input to the second region, a means for converting the second positional data into third positional data, a means for obtaining fourth positional data, and a means for outputting a signal in accordance with the fourth positional data.

Claims (21)

1. A driving method of an input device comprising:

a first region and a second region, wherein the first region and the second region are provided so as to face each other,

the driving method comprising steps of:

obtaining first positional data input to the first region;

obtaining second positional data input to the second region;

converting the second positional data into third positional data comprising data in which the second positional data is inverted vertically or horizontally;

obtaining fourth positional data comprising data which is logical conjunction of the first positional data and the third positional data; and

outputting a signal in accordance with the fourth positional data.

2. The driving method of the input device according to claim 1 , wherein the signal comprises labeled pattern data.

3. The driving method of the input device according to claim 1 , wherein the input device has a function of sensing contact of an object.

4. The driving method of the input device according to claim 1 , wherein the input device comprises a flexible region.

5. A driving method of an input device comprising:

a first region and a second region, wherein the first region and the second region are provided so as to face each other,

the driving method comprising steps of:

obtaining first positional data input to the first region;

obtaining second positional data input to the second region;

obtaining third positional data comprising data which is logical conjunction of the first positional data and the second positional data; and

outputting a signal in accordance with the third positional data.

6. The driving method of the input device according to claim 5 , wherein the signal comprises labeled pattern data.

7. The driving method of the input device according to claim 5 , wherein the input device has a function of sensing contact of an object.

8. The driving method of the input device according to claim 5 , wherein the input device comprises a flexible region.
