    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a two dimensional sensor particularly for car, which comprises a permanent magnet moving while facing plural sensor elements to detect a magnetic field. SOLUTION: A permanent magnet 3 is freely movable on a plane along the first and second directions, which do not coincide with each other, and is fixed to a control lever so as to freely rotate around the third direction perpendicular to the plane as the center. The permanent magnet 3 is freely movable relative to an accumulation device 2 composed of the first group partitioned along the first direction, the second group partitioned along the second direction and a sensor element 10 of the third group to detect an angle position of the permanent magnet 3. An electronic equipment integrated with the sensor unit 10 produces a code relative to a position movement of the permanent magnet 3, and generates a control signal corresponding to a required function.
