Abstract

Provided is a pressure-sensitive element having a relatively wide measurement range of a pressing force and a relatively simple structure while having more sufficient stretchability. A pressure-sensitive element includes a base material, a plurality of conductor wires, a plurality of dielectrics, and a filamentous member. The base material includes an elastic conductor having elasticity and conductivity. Further, the base material has a sheet shape. The plurality of conductor wires are arranged in parallel so as to individually intersect with the elastic conductor in plan view. Further, each of the plurality of conductor wires has a plurality of inflection parts. The plurality of dielectrics are arranged between the elastic conductor and the plurality of conductor wires. The filamentous member elongates so as to intersect with the plurality of conductor wires in plan view. Further, the filamentous member sews the plurality of conductor wires to the base material.
