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!
Including €0.01 for ecotax
The 0.2” Pololu force-Sensing Resistor is equipped with 2 membranes separated by an adhesive air gap. The 1st membrane consists of a resistive layer coated with carbon-based ink, while the 2nd, receiving the conductive substrate, incorporates the circuit boards needed for connection.
When the sensor is subjected to pressure or force, this reduces the thickness of the air gap. As pressure is applied, resistance decreases.
The force measured can range between a few grams to several kilograms, which means you can work on a wide variety of projects for which measuring pressure or force plays an important role:
The 0.2” Force-Sensing Resistor is so small and thin you can easily integrate it into any project, including small portable or miniature projects.
