Component Technical Specifications

A Flex Sensor is a specialized resistor that changes its resistance based on how much it is bent or curved. Constructed with conductive ink on a flexible substrate, it provides an analog output proportional to the bend angle, making it essential for motion-tracking and haptic feedback devices.

Technical Specifications

Operating Voltage0V to 5V (typically used in a voltage divider)
Resistance Range~10kΩ (flat) to ~60kΩ+ (90° bend)
Power Rating0.5 Watts (continuous), 1 Watt (peak)
DimensionsCommon lengths include 2.2" (55mm) and 4.5" (114mm)
Life CycleCapable of over 1 million flexes

Key Applications

Wearable TechMeasuring finger movement in VR or robotic gloves.
Structural MonitoringDetecting displacement or bending in mechanical beams.
Human-Machine InterfaceCreating touchless or gesture-based control systems.
