FlexiForce Pressure Sensor - 25lbs.

Code: SKU-000236

This is a piezoresistive force sensor from Tekscan. The harder you press the lower the sensor's resistance. Pressing hard the resistance changes from infinite to ~300k. The sensor itself is thin and flexible but the resistance does not change while being flexed.

Force-Sensing Resistor: 0.2″-Diameter Circle

Code: SEN-10039

This force-sensing resistor (FSR) from Interlink Electronics is a passive component that exhibits a decrease in resistance when there is an increase in the force applied to the 0.2″-diameter (0.5 cm) active area, allowing you to create a sensor that is able to detect force or pressure.

Load Cell - 5kg, Straight Bar (TAL220B)

Code: SKU-004851

This straight bar load cell (sometimes called a strain gauge) can translate up to 5kg of pressure (force) into an electrical signal. Each load cell is able to measure the electrical resistance that changes in response to, and proportional of, the strain (e.g. pressure or force) applied to the bar.

Load Sensor - 50kg (Generic)

Code: SKU-000630

This load sensor sometimes called a strain gauge is the same one found in digital bathroom scales (you know the ones you use in January for your New Year's resolutions and then forget about a month later). This sensor can measure up to about 110 pounds.

Piezo Vibration Sensor - Large

Code: SEN-10084

This basic piezo sensor from Measurement Specialties is often used for flex touch vibration and shock measurements. A small AC and large voltage (up to +/-90V) is created when the film moves back and forth. A simple resistor should get the voltage down to ADC levels.

Piezo Vibration Sensor - Large with Mass

Code: SKU-000350

This basic piezo sensor from Measurement Specialties is often used for flex touch vibration and shock measurements. A small AC and large voltage (up to +/-90V) is created when the film moves back and forth. A simple resistor should get the voltage down to ADC levels.

Flex Sensor 2.2"

Code: SKU-000633

A simple flex sensor 2.2" in length. As the sensor is flexed the resistance across the sensor increases. Patented technology by Spectra Symbol - they claim these sensors were used in the original Nintendo Power Glove. I love the Nintendo Power Glove.
