These flex sensors cost about $10 a pop, meaning her budget for the project was eaten up by these bendy potentiometers. Since then, [Michelle] figured out a great way to make extremely ...

Packaging can be a raw sensor element or a housed transducer. Self-contained instruments or meters display output at or near the device. Gauges/indicators have an analog display and no electronic ...

String potentiometers precisely measure linear position. They are also known as cable extension transducers, cable extension linear position sensors, draw wire sensors, draw wire transducers, yo-yo ...

The prototype has a threshold set via potentiometer for convenience ... creating a proximity sensor. The sensor shown here is essentially two plates mounted side-by-side, attached to an Arduino ...
