Arduino interfacing with Flex sensor 1. Flex sensor Flex sensors are passive resistive devices that can be used to detect bending or flexing. The Flex Sensor patented technology is based on resistive carbon elements. As a variable printed resistor, the Flex Sensor achieves great form-factor on a thin flexible substrate. When the substrate is bent, the sensor produces a resistance output correlated to the bend radius the smaller the radius, the higher the resistance value. 1.1 Mechanical Specifications: · Life Cycle: >1 million · Height: 0.43mm (0.017") · Temperature Range: -35°C to +80°C. ...
