The FlexiForce is a thin, flexible piezoresistive force sensor that measures applied pressure from 0 to 100 lbs (440N). The harder you press on the circular sensing area, the lower the sensor's resistance — from effectively infinite (no pressure) down to approximately 300kΩ under heavy force.
The sensor is flexible but only responds to pressure applied to the 9.53mm diameter sensing area at the tip, not to bending. It features a breadboard-friendly 0.1"-spaced 3-pin connector and a fast response time under 5ms.
