Force & Flex Sensors

SKU: DF-SEN0297 | Brand: DFRobot

The RP-C7.6-ST is a circular flexible thin-film pressure sensor with a compact 7.6 mm active area and ultra-thin 0.3 mm profile. It converts applied force into a variable resistance — output resistance decreases as pr...

SKU: DF-SEN0295 | Brand: DFRobot

The RP-C18.3-LT is a circular flexible thin-film pressure sensor, 18.3mm in diameter, designed for highly sensitive detection of both static and dynamic force. When pressure is applied to the active area, resistance d...

SKU: SF-SEN-08606 | Brand: SparkFun

A simple flex sensor 4.5" 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 Gl...

SKU: SF-BOB-13878 | Brand: SparkFun

The SparkFun Load Sensor Combinator is a bare PCB that combines four load sensors into a standard four-wire Wheatstone bridge configuration. If you open up an electronic bathroom scale, you’ll find a large rat’s ne...

SKU: AF-166 | Brand: Adafruit

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-KIT0176 | Brand: DFRobot

The Gravity I2C 1 kg Weight Sensor Kit is a complete scale-building kit that includes a load cell, HX711 signal adapter board, acrylic mounting bracket, and all hardware needed to measure weight from 1 g to 1,000 g. T...

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: DF-SEN0064 | Brand: DFRobot

A simple flex sensor 4.5" 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 Gl...

SKU: SF-SEN-09199 | Brand: SparkFun

The Minisense 100 from Measurement Specialties is a low-cost cantilever-type vibration sensor loaded by a mass to offer high sensitivity at low frequencies. Useful for detecting vibration and ‘tap’ inputs from a user....

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: DF-SEN0160 | Brand: DFRobot

A digital weight sensor kit based on the HX711 24-bit ADC, capable of measuring up to 1 kg. The HX711 is designed specifically for weight scale applications, interfacing directly with a bridge sensor to deliver precis...

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: AF-4541 | Brand: Adafruit

A strain gauge is a type of electronic sensor used to measure force or strain (big surprise there). They are made of an insulating flexible backing with a metallic foil pattern. The resistance of a strain gauge change...

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-09197 | Brand: SparkFun

A flexible piezo vibration sensor from Measurement Specialties, commonly used for detecting flex, touch, vibration, and shock. The PVDF polymer film generates a small AC voltage (up to ±90 V) when it moves, which can ...

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...

SKU: SF-SEN-08681 | Brand: SparkFun
