Introduction:
A simple flex sensor 2.2" in length. As the sensor is flexed, the resistance across the sensor increases. Patented technology by Spectra Symbol - they claim these sensors were used in the original Nintendo Power Glove.
The flex sensor changes its resistance as its flexed, so you can easily create an analog signal to connect to your microcontroller.
