1. A sensor body of a capacitance-type occupant detection sensor for detecting an occupant seated on a seat of a vehicle based on a capacitance value between a reference voltage and the sensor body, the sensor body being disposed in the seat, the sensor body comprising:

  • a main electrode having a detection voltage applied thereto; and

    a parallel electrode disposed in parallel with the main electrode with a gap interposed therebetween, the parallel electrode having the detection voltage applied thereto, whereinthe main electrode and the parallel electrode each have a base material, a first electrode member disposed on the base material, and a second electrode member disposed on the base material to cover the first electrode member, the second electrode member has an electric conductivity lower than the first electrode member, andthe first electrode member is disposed on a lateral perimeter of the second electrode member to surround a center of the second electrode member.
