Abstract
A sensor system according to the present disclosure includes a substrate, a force sensor, a calculation unit, and an output part. The substrate includes a reference plane and an inclined surface. The force sensor is provided on the inclined surface and outputs signals in three-axis directions that correspond to an orthogonal axis direction that is orthogonal to the inclined surface and two-axis directions that are parallel to the reference plane. The calculation unit calculates a pressing force in each coordinate axis direction of rectangular coordinates formed of an axis vertical to the reference plane and two axes parallel to the reference plane and moments around the respective coordinate axes of the rectangular coordinates. The output part outputs calculation results.
