Abstract

See full text

A novel input device that is highly convenient or reliable or a novel input/output device that is highly convenient or reliable. The following structure is contemplated. The input device includes sensor units that are arranged in a matrix and each include a window portion which transmits visible light, a light-transmitting first sensing element which includes an insulating layer and a pair of electrodes between which the insulating layer is interposed and overlaps with the window portion, a second sensing element which includes a photoelectric conversion element and does not overlap with the window portion, and a sensing circuit which supplies a sensing signal on the basis of a change in the parasitic capacitance of the first sensing element or on the basis of the current flowing through the second sensing element; and a base layer supporting the sensor units.
