PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To detect the presence / absence information of a subject to be detected for conductivity and to measure a biological signal in an environment in which a conductive signal shield is interposed between a sensor unit and a subject. A sensor device (400) includes a signal transmission unit (406) that transmits an inspection signal according to the approach and operation of a subject (404), and a sensor unit (402) that detects the transmitted inspection signal. A measurement unit (407) that measures and stores the detected inspection signal as a response signal indicating a capacitance value, and a power supply unit (401) that supplies power to the measurement unit are included. The signal transmission unit (406) is not connected to the ground, and the signal transmission unit (405) with respect to the conductor (405) as a signal shield interposed between the subject (404) and the sensor unit (402). The first portion (408) of the 406) is arranged closer to the sensor portion (402) than the conductor (405), and the second portion (409) of the signal transmission portion (406) is the conductor (405). It is located closer to the subject (404).
