1. A sensor system comprising:
a noncontact sensor module arranged on a display module; and
a processor configured to drive the sensor module,
wherein the sensor module is configured to detect a first coordinate and a second coordinate of a detection target, and
the second coordinate is detected before the first coordinate is detected, the processor is configured to:
calculate move information indicating a moving direction of the detection target in the first coordinate based on the first coordinate and the second coordinate detected by the sensor module, and
calculate a correction amount in the first coordinate based on the move information when the detection target approaches the sensor module and a distance between the sensor module and the detection target reaches a correction start distance;
wherein the move information includes angle information indicating an angle with respect to a vertical direction perpendicular to a main surface of the sensor module.
