Abstract

The disclosed display device with touch panel functionality has a display region comprising a first colour transmitting section which transmits a first colour, and a second colour transmitting section which transmits a second colour, and is provided, within a display region, with a pressure sensor (118) for detecting pushing force on the display region. Part or all of the pressure sensor (118) is a protruding section (70) which is a non-transmitting section that does not transmit light, and the first colour transmitting section and the second colour transmitting section are separated by the protruding section (70) which is a non-transmitting section.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a display device with a touch panel function. Background technique [0002] In order to enable position input using a writing pen or a finger in the liquid crystal display device, a structure having a function of detecting the coordinates of the pressure point is being studied. As an example of this, a structure provided with a pressure detection element is described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 11-271712 (Patent Document 1). [0003] The structure of using an electrostatic capacitive pressure sensor as an external touch panel is described in the technical paper "Touch Mode Capacitive Pressure Sensor" (Toshimoto Yamamoto et al., Fujikura Technical Review, No. 101, October 2001, pages 71-74) ( Non-Patent Document 1). [0004] Prior art literature [0005] Patent literature [0006] Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Publication No. 11-271712 [0007] Non-patent literature [0008] Non-Patent Document 1: "Touch Mode Capaciti...
