How to use Force Sensitive Resistors (FSR) with Arduino - Simple Force Sensing Arduino Tutorial 

You've got cool stuff keep up the awesome content Sir 👍

Thanks so much, this was really helpful. I have a final arduino project due tomorrow morning, wish me luck!

Thank you this helps a lot and easy to add more sensors with this logic

Thanks a lot for this amazing tutorial!

this is a great video! thank you so much. just what i needed :)

Thank you for the information.

Great video!! Super channel

This might just be the best youtube channel I've come across, not including RedBull/Drone Videos, Judo or Unbox Therapy

Awesome video and very helpful for a personal projet I'm working on! I was wondering if you have recommandations for stronger connection between the fsr and the rest of the circuits because my fsr placement is prone to sliding and shifting. Second, where did you find your weight column (first one on the excel) showed at 3:20? I'm using a 402UX and I'm working with heavier range of the pression and I'm still looking for the optimal resistance for my divider (any help will help :D). Thank you so much again to make quality content available!

How does the resistance vs force graph look on a log-log / semilog scale? Thanks for sharing:)

Hi, thanks for sharing! Do you have any idea what effect an increase in temperature would have on the FSR? i want want to measure a force between two 200 degrees celcius plates

Do you need a finger or conductive contact for the sensor to work? I am thinking of putting these sensors on a robotic gripper I am building and it will be used for picking objects up. I got told that these resistors need a conductive material for it to work such as a finger? Is this true?

can I measure the impact force using this?.I want to build an impact analyzer. I want to measure real-time impact force due to cricket ball after hit the arm guard

Hi, i want to cover a padel racket and have a sort of hitbox of where i hit the ball, could this work or do you have any suggestion for some kind of sensor?

Hi. Could you let me know what resitor use for FSR UX 400 sensor?

To use the FSR, do you need an Arduino? Can you just hook it up to a regular circuit (power source + light)

Thanks for your great video , Can I Measure force newton with this method?

Hi! I have an issue. The resistants doesn’t stops to change if I put a weight. Starts from20k and drops down for 14K with a constant pressure. I have an FSR with 0,2-20N sensitivity.

Is it possible to connect and read the outputs of multiple fsrs using one Arduino (or other microcontroller)?

Can we control servo based on if signal> treshhold move servo to 180? or it needs to be mapped from 0-1023 and move proportionally?Thank you

please sir I have a school task, and my project about teakwondo protectors with scoring systeme, and I want to use FSRs for detecting the applayed force but you said that it work only for light objects, so do you have any ideas, thanks for the video!

How do I calculate the changing resistance in accordance with the changing force? is there any formula or should I practically find it out?

i want to use the FSRs sensors for a teakwondo body protectors scoring systeme, but i learned that this sensor is tamperature depend, so is that true ? because if that's true will affect at the scoring systeme

The resistance R2 values are they arbitrary or manufacturer provided ?

I am having two joyit sensors 0-2kg and 0-10kg. But I am not sure the values are correct. how do I calibrate it ? please tell me the procedure to calibrate the sensor and give me correct values

How would you measure the force of objects larger than the FSR itself?

The small fsr in the video, whats the lowest measurements in gram in can measure?

Does it work with rising water? For example, a force sense is placed on the side of a bridge. When the water rises and touches the force sensor, will it work? Thank you in advance

what equation were you using for the Analog read next to the arduino output?

nice in a lab enviroment, any tips for how to protect this flimsy plastic in real usage

Hi. I am connecting the JOYIT SEN-Pressure sensor (10kg) to Arduino UNO. Using your code and I can't measure the weight/force (in Kg). Could you help, please?

the last value of fsr represent force in newton ??

What if I wanted to attach, say, 100 FSRs to an Arduino. Assume I'd want to be able to know the reading of each FSR. How would I do that?

What is the reading of the sensor, does it read resistance, voltage or pressure?

Does the FSR measure the weight

Hi Can I use this FSR for measuring upto 10- 200 KG. Please give the value of resistor to be used or the relevant video link. Thanks.

Does the sensor work if kept under water/fluid?

If i am using raspberry pi and arduino both the i connect the whole circuit to the arduino bord and write a program in python means in raspberry pi then what is the code can you please tell me

can i use fsr as a pressure sensor for a seat

does anyone know how I'd connect about 200 sensors to an arduino?

Is this device suitable for loads of 100lb?
