• Ultra-Thin & Flexible Sensor: At just 110mm long, the FSR's slim profile allows for easy integration into tight spaces or curved surfaces without sacrificing performance.
• Module for Easy Interfacing: The included amplifier module converts the sensor's variable resistance into a stable voltage output (0-3.3V), making it effortless to connect to microcontrollers like Arduino, Raspberry Pi, ESP32, and more.
• High Sensitivity & Repeatability: Provides consistent and reliable readings, crucial for accurate data collection in any project.
• Versatile Applications: Perfect for pressure-sensitive switches, smart seating, robotics (tactile sensing), interactive installations, and custom sensing solutions.
• Simple Setup: With just a few connections to your microcontroller, you'll be reading pressure data in no time.

How It Works / Common Uses:

The FSR sensor operates by changing its electrical resistance in response to applied force. When pressure is applied, its resistance decreases. The included amplifier module simplifies this by converting that resistance change into a stable analog voltage signal (0-3.3V), which can be easily read by your microcontroller's Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC). This setup allows you to accurately quantify the applied force. This powerful kit is an indispensable component for:

• Creating custom pressure-activated switches or safety cut-offs.
• Building interactive floor mats, smart beds, or seat occupancy sensors.
• Adding tactile feedback and object detection to robotic grippers.
• Developing innovative smart home devices and responsive interfaces.
• Prototyping health and fitness trackers requiring weight or pressure monitoring.
