Abstract
Provided is an electroacoustic transducer capable of reducing the thickness and weight of the entire pillow when a speaker is embedded in the pillow or a headrest, enabling miniaturization of a device by causing the position of the speaker to be close to a position at which the head is placed, and improving the accuracy of signal processing by reducing a load of the signal processing in a case where active noise control is performed, thereby improving a noise reduction effect. The electroacoustic transducer includes: an electroacoustic transduction unit having an electroacoustic transduction film including a polymer composite piezoelectric body in which piezoelectric body particles are dispersed in a viscoelastic matrix formed of a polymer material having viscoelasticity at a normal temperature and thin film electrodes respectively laminated on both surfaces of the polymer composite piezoelectric body, and an elastic support disposed in close contact with one principal surface to bend the shape of the electroacoustic transduction film; and a first cushion layer that is in contact with the electroacoustic transduction film on an electroacoustic transduction film side of the electroacoustic transduction unit to cover the electroacoustic transduction unit and is formed of a three-dimensional solid knitted fabric.
