The sensor device includes: a sensor body, having a detection surface; and a housing, accommodating the sensor body, including a window frame for forming a window opening, exposing the detection surface of the sensor body at the window opening, and supported by the elastic support member. The elastic support member has an elastic modulus set equal to or greater than an elastic modulus of the seat cushion.
