Abstract
A sensor device includes a plurality of systems each having a sensor element, and a computation unit configured to calculate as a first value a value of at least one of a force and a moment applied to a detection target in a predetermined axial direction, based on a detection signal detected by the sensor element, and an abnormality determining unit configured to compare the first values calculated by the computation units of the systems with one another, and determine that there is an abnormality if a difference of the first value is greater than or equal to a predetermined amount. The computation unit of at least one of the systems calculates as a second value a value of at least one of a force and a moment applied to the detection target in the axial direction, based on detection signals detected by the sensor elements of the systems.
