Abstract
A seat sensor for a vehicle seat having a seat face portion includes a plurality of sensor cells. One of two electrodes of each sensor cell contacts an other one of the two electrodes to make the each of the plurality of sensor cells become electrically conductive when the each of the plurality of sensor cells is applied with a load. A first one of the plurality of sensor cells is displaced from a second one of the plurality of sensor cells in a longitudinal direction and in a transverse direction of the vehicle. One of the two electrodes of the second one of the plurality of sensor cells is directly and exclusively connected in series with one of the two electrode of the first one of the plurality of sensor cells.
