A displacement sensor includes a linear light source which emits a linear beam, a beam splitter, a line sensor, and an imaging lens. The linear light source is disposed with an inclination of a predetermined angle with respect to a perpendicular line of an optical axis of the imaging lens. The imaging lens forms an image of the linear light source at a position conjugate with the linear light source with an inclination of a predetermined angle with respect to the perpendicular line of the optical axis of the imaging lens. The beam splitter is disposed between the linear light source and the imaging lens. The line sensor is disposed at a position conjugate with the image formed by the imaging lens through the imaging lens and the beam splitter so that the optical axis of the imaging lens has the inclination of the predetermined angle with respect to the perpendicular line of the optical axis reflected by the beam splitter.
