Information processing method, information processing device, and magnetic element

Abstract

[Problem] To provide an information processing method, an information processing apparatus, and a magnetic element that, without requiring power for input, can be used as an information processing device (such as a sensor) in an independent system not supplied with power, can be made compact, can be realized at low cost, and that have lower power consumption. [Solution] In the present invention, on an elastically deformable substrate 2, a magnetic body layer 3 is provided, the layer comprising one or a plurality of magnetic bodies 4 the orientation of magnetization of which is responsive to strain. Through detection of the magnetization state of the magnetic bodies 4 constituting the magnetic body layer 3, including at least the orientation of magnetization of the magnetic bodies 4, information on the magnetization state is output as a result of input of strain to the substrate.
