1. A sensor system comprising:
a sensor module including a sensor panel arranged on a display panel; and
a processor capable of driving the sensor module in a noncontact manner,
wherein the processor is configured to
detect a first input operation based on a detection target approaching the sensor panel, and then
measure an amount of movement from a first point based on movement of the detection target in a direction away from the sensor panel after the detection target approaches the sensor panel up to the first point, and
detect a second input operation based on the detection target approaching the sensor panel again after the amount of movement exceeds a movement threshold value.
