Great for robotic grippers
Works perfectly for my robotic arm project. Sensitivity is good and consistent across the active area.

Perfect size
The thin profile fits perfectly in my wearable project without adding bulk.

Good for MIDI controller
Used it for a custom drum pad. Needs some calibration in code but works well once set up.

Durability concerns
Works well initially but drifts after heavy use. Good for prototypes but maybe not for final production.

Easy to interface
Connected to Arduino easily. Documentation was helpful for getting started with voltage dividers.
Q: What voltage should I use to power this sensor?
A: Typically 3.3V or 5V logic levels work best with a simple voltage divider circuit.
Q: Is there an Arduino library available for this?
A: Yes, many open libraries exist for FSR interpolation and calibration on GitHub.
Q: Can it measure weight accurately for a scale?
A: It measures force pressure, not precise weight. Calibration is required for specific load cases.
Q: Is this sensor waterproof?
A: No, moisture affects resistance readings significantly. Keep it dry.
Q: What is the expected lifespan of the sensor?
A: Rated for over 1 million actuations under normal operating conditions.
