1. A coordinates detecting device characterized in that it comprises:

  • a plurality of sensors located at prescribed positions in a coordinates detecting region for detecting coordinates set on an image display surface (4) which displays images by means of scanning lines;

    counters for counting the number of clock inputs with respect to the horizontal direction of said image display surface and counting the number of scans in the vertical direction, based on the scan timing of said scanning lines detected by said sensors; and

    a coordinates determining circuit which, when a desired trigger signal is input from an external source, outputs the count values of said counters at the time that this trigger signal is input in the form of relative coordinates on said image display surface.
