Abstract
Disclosed herein is a flexible display device having a bending sensor mounted in a layer that is tensioned or a layer that is compressed in order to increase the magnitude of voltage output from the bending sensor. The flexible display device includes at least two bending sensors mounted in a layer that is tensioned and/or a layer that is compressed when the flexible display device, including a plurality of layers, is bent.
