Force detector and force detection system with layered structure and stress generator

A force detector includes a layered structure including a first layer and a second layer. The first layer includes a detection face that receives a force to be detected and the second layer is disposed on a face opposite to the detection face. A Young's modulus of the first layer is different from a Young's modulus of the second layer. The force detector further includes a stress generator formed in the layered structure and that receives the force acting in a tangential direction of the detection face and generates a stress with a distribution that is asymmetric with respect to a normal direction of the detection face around the stress generator. The force detector further includes a plurality of sensors disposed around the stress generator.
