A detection sensor includes a detector unit which is provided on an insulating board at a first side of the board, a circuit component which is provided on the board at a second side of the board and which processes a signal detected by the detector unit, and a wiring unit which penetrates through the board in the thickness direction of the board and connects the detector unit and the circuit component.

Detection device including circuit component

A capacitive sensor includes a fixed board provided with a fixed electrode unit consisting of one or more electrodes, a movable member provided with a movable electrode unit consisting of one or more electrodes which faces the fixed electrode unit with a gap therebetween, the movable member being rotatable with respect to the fixed board, a weight provided on the movable member, and a retaining element which is disposed between the fixed plate and the weight and retains the movable member in a rotatable manner. At least one of the movable electrode unit and the fixed electrode unit includes a plurality of electrodes.

Capacitive sensor

A capacitive sensor includes a retaining member, an intermediate member retained by the retaining member such that the intermediate member can rotate around a first axis, a movable member retained by the intermediate member such that the movable member can rotate around a second axis which is perpendicular to the first axis, a weight provided on the movable member, a movable electrode unit consisting of one or more electrodes which is provided on the movable member, and a board on which a fixed electrode unit consisting of one or more electrodes is provided such that the fixed electrode unit faces the movable electrode unit. At least one of the movable electrode unit and the fixed electrode unit includes a plurality of electrodes, and capacitances between the one or more electrodes of the movable electrode unit and the one or more electrodes of the fixed electrode unit are detected.
