SpectraSymbol Flex Sensor 2.2″ Bend Sensor for Hand Gesture Recognition
A simple Flex Sensor 2.2″ – Bend Sensor with a length of 2.2″ which bends and flexes with a physical device. As the sensor is flex, the resistance across the sensor increases. A connector is 0.1″ spaced and breadboard friendly. Applications in – Robotics, Gaming (Virtual Motion), Medical Devices, Computer Peripherals, Musical Instruments, Physical Therapy.
The flex sensor is a bend detecting sensor that has got numerous applications in robotics, medical and haptic technology. The resistance of these sensors changes in accordance with the bend, which can be measured using any microcontroller.
Note: The base of the sensor is sensitive to bending and may get damaged. Make sure that you bend only the sensing area.
Applications:
- Angle Displacement Measurement.
- Bends and Flexes physically with the motion device.
