Abstract
A sensor including a generating unit; a detecting unit; a substrate; a member that exerts influence on an object to be detected; and a housing that includes a first housing that operably supports the member and a second housing to which a part of the substrate is fixed. The substrate includes a first portion provided with the generating unit and a second portion provided with the detecting unit that are integrated, and has a curved shape or a bent shape in which a surface of the first portion at which the generating unit is provided and a surface of the second portion at which the detecting unit is provided face each other. One of the first portion and the second portion is fixed to the second housing. A surface of the other of the first portion and the second portion adheres to the first housing.
