The present invention aims to provide an electronic pen that is able to prevent the reflection of an ultrasonic wave. An electronic pen according to the present invention has: a housing having a longitudinal axis and a write side tip along the longitudinal axis; at least an ultrasonic wave transmitter, the ultrasonic wave transmitter being arranged near the write side tip of the housing; and a controller for detecting a sensor orientation and for controlling transmission of the ultrasonic wave. The sensor orientation is an index that shows a rotational orientation of the housing about the longitudinal axis, the rotational orientation being directed at an ultrasonic wave sensor for receiving the ultrasonic wave that is transmitted from the ultrasonic wave transmitter. The controller selectively activates a part of the ultrasonic wave transmitter such that the ultrasonic wave is transmitted from the orientation which is directed to the sensor orientation.
