    摘要: A strain measuring system includes a piezoelectric element and a resistor provided on an object. The system also includes a resistance detection circuit to detect a change in resistance of the resistor, and a piezoelectric effect detection circuit to detect a piezoelectric effect of the piezoelectric element. A strain calculation circuit detects a strain changing time while the strain of the object is changing using a detection result from the piezoelectric effect detection circuit, calculates a change in resistance of the resistor during the strain changing time, and calculates a degree of strain of the object using a calculation result of the change in resistance.

    摘要: A sensor that includes a first film having a first main surface and a second main surface, the first film generating a charge according to a deformation amount of the first film; a first electrode on the first main surface; a second electrode on the second main surface; and a first fixing member and a second fixing member constructed to fix the first film, the first electrode, and the second electrode to an article. The first film is dimensioned to occupy an area equal to or more than half a peripheral surface of the article. The second electrode is located closer to the article than the first electrode. The first fixing member is separated from the second fixing member in an extending direction of the article.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to a method and a device for measuring a force action. The disclosure additionally relates to an input apparatus which uses such a device or such a method. In a first step, a voltage pulse resulting from a force action on a force sensor is generated by a charge amplifier. Using this voltage pulse, a trigger pulse may be generated by a comparator circuit. A voltage value derived from the voltage pulse is then stored in a storage capacitor by a current mirror. The capacitor voltage resulting therefrom may be evaluated by an evaluation unit.
