Touch and flex sensors
Add touch sensors and bending sensors to your robots
The Flex Sensor 2.2” was inspired by the Spectra Symbol technology, which also claims to be at the origin of Nintendo’s Power Glove – so you can see why such a sensor can be lot of fun!
The Pololu Force-Sensing Resistor is an electronics accessory you’ll quickly find essential for all projects requiring detection of exerted force or pressure. Ideal for a touch-sensitive project!
The Flex Sensor 4.5”, compatible with Aruduino Uno, was said to be inside the original Nintendo’s Power Glove, released in 1989, pretty cool!
Add whiskers to your RedBot robot to avoid any obstacles!
Link up to 12 touch sensor modules to your microcontroller with this MPR121 12-key capacitive module. So sensitive it could be easily mistaken for a proximity sensor module.
This load cell enables you to weigh objects of up to 10 g by translating physical pressure into an electrical resistance.
Are you trying to create a DIY electronic mini-scale? This load cell - 500 g is the perfect tool for that!
The HX711 load cell amplifier is a breakout board you can connect to your microcontroller to measure the weight of an object more easily and accurately.
Combine four load cells with this SparkFun load sensor combinator to design your own electronic bathroom scales. Simple wiring and reliable data!
