Neoprene Flex Sensor Kit

Description

Neoprene Flex Sensor KitUsing neoprene, Velostat, conductive thread and stretch conductive fabric to construct a fabric bend sensor. Velostat is a piezoresistive plastic film that reacts to pressure with a decrease in resistance. The sensor does not specifically react to bend, but because it is sandwiched between two layers of neoprene, pressure is exerted when bending. Allowing one to measure bend (angle) via pressure. Your range should be about 2K Ohm. This is a kit and requires assembly.ApplicationsWearable technology and e-textilesCollision detection on mobile robotsVR Gloves and VR suitsPhysics applications and experiments
