Abstract

A technique that can emit a sensor signal that accurately reflects only the pressure to be truly detected in a glove-type wearable sensor in which a film-like pressure sensor is incorporated into a fingertip of a thin work glove is disclosed. In a film-like pressure sensor incorporated into a fingertip of a glove-type wearable sensor, three coordinate axis directions in a three-dimensional orthogonal coordinate system are assumed to be a vertical direction, a longitudinal direction of the pressure sensor, and a width direction of the pressure sensor, at least one or more flexible printed circuits and one sheet-like pressure sensitive element are laminated in the vertical direction, and only the pressure applied to the fingertip of a wearer after wearing the wearable sensor is detected.
