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 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.
