Abstract: A method of manufacturing a display device provided with a thin-film electronic circuit 11 includes: forming the thin-film electronic circuit 11 having a glass substrate 21 that is temporarily attached to a support member 23 by thinning the glass substrate 21 through etching while the glass substrate 21 is temporarily attached to the support member 23; attaching the thin-film electronic circuit 11 that is temporarily attached to the support member 23 to a display panel; and peeling off the support member 23 from the thin-film electronic circuit 11 attached to the display panel.

Abstract: A touch panel includes a touch region for detecting a location of a touch by an object, and a plurality of touch location detection electrodes arranged in the touch region. The touch panel is configured to detect the location of the touch based on a capacitance formed between the touch location detection electrodes and the object. An optical characteristic of a gap between the touch location detection electrodes adjacent to each other is substantially equal to an optical characteristic of the touch location detection electrodes.

Abstract: A touch panel device includes a plurality of touch position detection electrodes provided in a touch area, and a detection circuit configured to detect a touch position or positions based on a capacitance or capacitances formed between the touch position detection electrodes and a touching object. The touch position detection electrodes include a first electrode and second electrodes formed along a curved substrate surface. The first electrode has a center portion provided at a center of the touch area, and a plurality of tip portions radially extending from the center portion to reach a periphery of the touch area. The second electrodes are located in a region including the periphery of the touch area, and one of the second electrodes is located between each adjacent pair of the tip portions.

Abstract: A capacitive touch panel (30) includes a touch electrode (11) provided on an insulating substrate (10), and a coordinate correction pattern (16a) provided in a frame form so as to be along the periphery of the touch electrode (11) and connected to the periphery of the touch electrode (11). The touch panel (30) detects a touch position in the touch electrode (11) based on an electrical signal through a coordinate correction pattern (16a). The coordinate correction pattern (16a) is provided in a flexible printed circuit (20) bonded to the insulating substrate (10).

Abstract: There is provided an input device using a touch panel allowing input operations to be performed without viewing an input surface. The input device includes a transparent capacitance-type touch panel (12) formed in the shape of a dome, and a liquid crystal panel (14a) disposed on the back side of the touch panel. The position detection processing portion (20) applies predetermined voltage to four terminals (T1 to T4) of the touch panel, and detects current flowing via each terminal to detect the coordinates of a point on the touch panel operated by the operator's finger (100) based on the detected current value. The data processing portion (30) causes a liquid crystal display device (14) to display an operation screen, including graphics, symbols, etc.
