Abstract
A detection device includes a panel having opposed main surfaces including an operation surface and a rear surface. A support structure is located on at least one of the main surfaces and prevents warping of the panel while permitting the operation surface to be deformed in response to a pressing operation applied to the operation surface. A sensor for sensing the pressing operation applied to the operation surface is provided on one of the main surfaces at a location where at least a portion of the sensor does not overlap the support structure in plan view.
