Abstract

Disclosed is an inductive detection sensor for unlocking a vehicle opening, the sensor particularly being able to be mounted in the opening and including a printed circuit, on which an inductive coil and a management module are mounted, which module is able to detect a variation in the electromagnetic field at the terminals of the inductive coil, the sensor including a visible pressure component, which is at least partially metal, at least partially arranged in line with the inductive coil and being able to move relative to the inductive coil after a pressure is directly exerted onto the pressure component by a user, the management module being able to control the unlocking of the opening following the detection of a variation in the electromagnetic field at the terminals of the inductive coil following a movement of the visible pressure component by a user.
