PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a pressure sensor with a simple structure capable of detecting the magnitude of a pressure due to a contact position and a contact without causing any malfunction.SOLUTION: An embodiment of the pressure sensor includes: a first elastic dielectric layer, which has a first plane and a second plane positioned at the opposite side to the first plane; a first conductor layer disposed on the first plane; a linear second conductor layer disposed on the second plane; and a first time domain reflection measurement element which is connected to the first conductor layer and the second conductor layer. The first conductor layer is positioned at least in an area opposed to the second conductor layer in the first plane.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】簡易な構造を有するにもかかわらず、誤動作を起こすことなく、接触の位置および接触による圧力の大きさを検出できる感圧センサを提供すること。【解決手段】本開示の一態様に係る感圧センサは、弾性を有し、かつ第一面および前記第一面と反対側の第二面とを有する第一誘電体層と、前記第一面上に配置された第一導体層と、前記第二面上に配置された線状の第二導体層と、前記第一導体層および前記第二導体層に接続されている第一時間領域反射測定装置とを備え、前記第一導体層は、前記第一面のうち、少なくとも前記第二導体層と対向する領域に位置する。【選択図】図１
