Flex-force pressure sensor

Kotobuki

Hi,

Does anyone have any suggestions for use of the Flexforce sensor? Would it be suitable for use on the bottom of a HexCrawler foot to determine how much load is on each foot? Does the lead part of the sensor cooperate well? I am afraid that it would fail very easily bending back and fourth, especially perpendicular with the lead.

Thank you in advance for info!

Best,

Joe

I have a vibratab sensor, not a flex force.
I deleted my comments because they were very wrong
sorry

Don't see any reason why not as long as the force applied is not too high or too low and you can spread the bending area along the length of the connection strip.
