20g - 6kg Force & Pressure Sensor Flexible Precision Thin Film RP-C18.3-ST

Description:

This is Force/Pressure sensor can measure a force of 20g-6kg acting on it. It is simple and easy to use with Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and other microcontrollers. It uses Thin Film technology and is flexible. Great for general purpose project applications. It has two pin interface which is simple and easy to use. It works like a variable resistor. The resistance between the two output pins varies corresponding to the force acting on the sensor! Your microcontroller - Arduino, Raspberry Pi, etc can measure this resistance using its inbuilt ADC and get the force acting on the sensor. This sensor makes it easy, simple, and affordable to use force sensors in your projects!

This flexible pressure sensor is based on new nanometer pressure-sensitive materials supplemented by ultra-thin film substrate. Highly sensitive flexible nanometer materials achieve highly sensitive detection of pressure. It is also water-resistant! The same sensor is available in different force measurement ranges which lets you chose the perfect force sensor for your project.
