A capacitance sensor includes: a first electrode; a flexible member having a dielectric property and elasticity; and a second electrode provided in the flexible member to face the first electrode with a space between the second electrode and the first electrode and configured to detect a capacitance between the second electrode and the first electrode. The flexible member includes: an electrode inclusion portion including the second electrode in the electrode inclusion portion and separated from the first electrode; a plurality of pillar portions extending between the electrode inclusion portion and the second electrode; and a filled portion filled with a dielectric material containing a bubble in a gap.
A capacitance sensor comprising:
