Flex Sensor (4.5 Inch)

The 4.5-inch Flex Sensor is a high-quality bend-detecting sensor that changes resistance based on its flex angle. It is widely used in robotics, wearable technology, motion tracking, and interactive electronics. As the sensor bends, its resistance increases, providing an analog signal that can be read by Arduino, Raspberry Pi, or other microcontrollers to measure bending angles accurately.
