This rubber sheet is made of the same carbon-black impregnated rubber material that our conductive rubber cord uses. Traditionally it would be used for...

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. I love the Nintendo Power Glove. It’s so bad!

This load sensor is the same one found in digital bathroom scales (you know, the ones you use in January for your New Year’s resolutions, and then forget about a month later). This sensor can measure up to about 110 pounds. Check the video below for a simple explanation on how these work and how to use them.

This basic piezo sensor from Measurement Specialties is often used for flex, touch, vibration and shock measurements. A small AC and large voltage (up to +/-90V) is created when the film moves back and forth. A simple resistor should get the voltage down to ADC levels. Can also be used for impact sensing or a flexible switch.

Weight Sensor Module is based on HX711, which is a precision 24-bit analog-to-digital convertor designed for weight scale and industrial control applications to interface directly with a bridge sensor. It not only has a few basic functions, but also contains high integration, fast response, immunity, and other features. This weight sensor lowers the cost of the electronic scale, and at the same time improving the performance and reliability. The input interface is compatible with Arduino I/O port. The output adopts compact terminal that makes the sensor easier to connect. It's the best choose for electronic enthusiast to do some tiny home scale.
