Abstract
An input accepting device includes a memory, and a processor coupled to the memory. In a case in which a detected value of electrostatic capacity detected by an electrostatic sensor is greater than or equal to a first threshold value, the processor accepts operation due to contact of an operator. In a case in which a state, in which the detected value of the electrostatic capacity detected by the electrostatic sensor is greater than or equal to a second threshold value, continues for a first time period, the processor determines that there is contact by the operator. In a case in which it is determined that there is contact by the operator, the processor sets the first threshold value to a value that is greater than or equal to the second threshold value based on the detected value detected by the electrostatic sensor.
