1. A detection device that detects the direction and magnitude of a force, the apparatus comprising:
- a first substrate that includes a plurality of force sensors disposed around a reference point; and
a second substrate on which is formed an elastic protrusion whose center of gravity is positioned in a position that overlaps with the reference point and that elastically deforms due to the force in a state in which the tip of the elastic protrusion makes contact with the first substrate,wherein the second substrate is an elastic material having a predetermined elasticity.

Abstract
A detection device includes a first substrate having a plurality of force sensors disposed around respective reference points, and a second substrate on which is formed elastic protrusions whose centers of gravity are positioned in positions that overlap with respective reference points and that elastically deform due to the force in a state in which the tips of the elastic protrusions make contact with the first substrate. The second substrate is an elastic material having a predetermined elasticity.

3. A detection device that detects the direction and magnitude of a force, the apparatus comprising:
-
a first substrate that includes a plurality of force sensors disposed around a reference point; an elastic protrusion whose center of gravity is positioned in a position that overlaps with the reference point and that elastically deforms due to the force; and a second substrate provided on the opposite side as the first substrate with the elastic protrusion therebetween, wherein the elastic protrusion is formed on the first substrate so that the tip of the elastic protrusion makes contact with the second substrate; and the second substrate is an elastic material having a predetermined elasticity. - View Dependent Claims (12, 17)
