Abstract: A planar illumination device according to an embodiment, including: a light guiding plate having one of a pair of opposite principal surfaces serving as a light emission surface; a light source arranged at a side surface connecting end edges of the pair of principal surfaces of the light guiding plate; and a frame, in which the light guiding plate is arranged. The frame is formed of plural frame members arranged along side surfaces of the light guiding plate. The plural frame members are configured to include a resin frame member and a metal frame member, and to have a joint portion between the resin frame member and the metal frame member, the joint portion arranged at end portions of the resin frame member and the metal frame member.

Abstract: There is provided a portable apparatus capable of detecting a touch position where a user touches the portable apparatus and a touch strength with which the user touches the portable apparatus. The portable apparatus includes: a rectangular frame on which a display panel unit is to be mounted; four touch detection-dedicated legs respectively extending from vicinities of four corners of the frame; a first strain gage attached to each of the touch detection-dedicated legs; and a calculation unit that finds the touch position and the touch strength based on an output of the first strain gage.
