  • Patent number: 11785827
    Abstract: A display device that can switch between normal display and see-through display is provided. Visibility in see-through display is improved. A liquid crystal element overlaps with a light-emitting element. The light-emitting element, a transistor, and the like overlapping with the liquid crystal element transmit visible light. When the liquid crystal element blocks external light, an image is displayed with the light-emitting element. When the liquid crystal element transmits external light, an image displayed with the light-emitting element is superimposed on a transmission image through the liquid crystal element.

  • Publication number: 20180052535
    Abstract: A highly usable touch pen and a method for providing input to an electronic device using the touch pen are provided. A ball that is formed using a material not slipping on the surface of an input portion of an electronic device and that can rotate in the touch pen is set at the tip of the touch pen. The ball includes an elastic material. Alternatively, the tip of the touch pen is movable. When input is provided to an electronic device by moving the touch pen, the tip of which is provided with the ball formed using a material not slipping on the input portion surface of the electronic device, the ball rolls on the input portion surface while providing input.
