Flex Sensor

The Flex Sensor project involves using an Arduino Mega to interface with a flex sensor. A flex sensor changes its resistance based on the amount of bend applied to it. This project demonstrates how to connect the flex sensor to the Arduino Mega, read its analog output, and display the sensor values on the Serial Monitor of Arduino IDE. It provides insights into monitoring and interpreting the flex sensor's response to bending movements.
