The Interlink 402 is a round force-sensitive resistor (FSR) with a 12.7 mm (0.5″) sensing area. It changes resistance based on applied pressure — the harder you press, the lower the resistance — making it a simple, lo...

SKU: DF-SEN0296 | Brand: DFRobot

This is a square flexible thin film pressure sensor of short legs with a side length of 40mm, which can be used to realize highly sensitive detection of pressure. The sensor is durable and designed to sense static and...

SKU: DF-SEN0293 | Brand: DFRobot

The RP-L-170 is a long, flexible thin-film pressure sensor with a 170mm active area for detecting both static and dynamic pressure. As pressure is applied, the sensor's resistance decreases — making it easy to read wi...

SKU: SF-SEN-08680 | Brand: SparkFun

These are very thin variable potentiometers. By pressing down on various parts of the strip, the resistance linearly changes from 100Ohms to 10,000Ohms allowing the user to very accurately calculate the relative posit...

SKU: SF-SEN-09673 | Brand: SparkFun

A compact force sensitive resistor (FSR) from Interlink Electronics with a 4 mm (0.16″) diameter active sensing area. The resistance changes based on applied pressure — from over 1 MΩ with no pressure down to approxim...

SKU: DF-SEN0294 | Brand: DFRobot

This is a circular flexible thin film pressure sensor of short legs with a diameter of 18.3mm, which can be used to realize highly sensitive detection of pressure. The sensor is durable and designed to sense static an...

SKU: SF-SEN-08712 | Brand: SparkFun

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 th...
