Abstract

An electronic device includes: a sensor layer to be folded or unfolded about a folding axis extending in a first direction; and a sensor driver to drive the sensor layer. The sensor layer includes: first electrodes along the first direction; second electrodes along a second direction crossing the first direction; a first electrode group including first auxiliary electrodes along the second direction; a first auxiliary trace line electrically connected with the first auxiliary electrodes; a first signal transmission line electrically connected with a first-first auxiliary electrode among the first auxiliary electrodes; and a second signal transmission line electrically connected with a first-second auxiliary electrode spaced from the first-first auxiliary electrode in the second direction among the first auxiliary electrodes. The sensor driver is to sense a folding of the sensor layer by sensing an induced current induced by the first-first auxiliary electrode and the first-second auxiliary electrode.
