Pololu Force-Sensing Resistor: 0.25″-Diameter Circle, Short Tail

Pololu presents a 0.5 cm diameter, short-tail, force-sensing resistor (FSR) from Interlink Electronics. This passive component showcases an inverse relationship between the force applied and its resistance - as the force increases, the resistance decreases. With a sensitivity range that can detect force from a few grams to a few kilograms, this FSR is ideally suited for human touch control applications. The FSR's unique property lies in its ability to detect and respond to varying degrees of force or pressure. This makes it an invaluable tool in creating sensors for a wide range of applications. Whether you're designing interactive devices that respond to human touch or crafting a sensitive robotics project, this force-sensing resistor can add a new level of interactivity and responsiveness.One of the key benefits of this FSR is its compact size. With a diameter of just 0.5 cm, it can be integrated into designs where space is a premium without compromising on performance. Additionally, its short tail design provides added flexibility, making it easier to install in a variety of configurations.Furthermore, this FSR's sensitivity range from a few grams to a few kilograms enhances its versatility. Whether you need to detect a light touch or a firm press, this resistor can accommodate a broad spectrum of force inputs, making it a reliable choice for a multitude of touch control applications.
