Flex Sensor (2.2 Inch)

The Flex Sensor (2.2 Inch) is a highly sensitive and versatile sensor that measures the amount of bend or flex in a given direction. It converts physical motion into a change in resistance, making it an essential component for a wide range of applications, from robotics and wearable devices to gaming controllers and biomedical devices. As the sensor flexes, its resistance changes, providing an accurate and reliable means of detecting movement and position.

Key Features:

• High Sensitivity to Bending: Responds accurately to bending in one direction, allowing precise measurement of flex or curvature.
• Durable Design: Constructed with robust materials to withstand repeated flexing, ensuring a long operational life.
• Simple Analog Output: Provides a resistance-based analog output that is easy to read with microcontrollers, Arduino, or other analog input devices.
• Compact Size: The 2.2-inch length makes it suitable for integration into small or compact projects, without compromising on performance.
• Wide Range of Applications: Ideal for use in wearable technology, robotics, medical devices, musical instruments, gaming, and more.

Specifications:

• Length: 2.2 inches (55.88mm)
• Thickness: Approximately 0.43mm
• Resistance Range: 10K ohms (flat) to 20K-30K ohms (bent at 180 degrees)
• Operating Voltage: 0V to 5V
• Temperature Range: -35°C to +80°C
• Connector Type: 2-pin header

Applications:

• Wearable Technology: Detects finger, knee, or arm movements for fitness tracking and gesture control.
• Robotics: Measures joint angles, gripper positions, and arm movements.
• Medical Devices: Used in prosthetics, physical therapy devices, and rehabilitation equipment to monitor motion.
• Gaming Controllers: Provides input for motion-sensitive gaming and interactive applications.
• Musical Instruments: Senses movements to create dynamic sound effects in electronic musical instruments.
