Flex sensor 2.2 inch

This sensor can detect flexing or bending in one direction. They were popularized by being used in the Nintendo Power Glove as a gaming interface.
These sensors are easy to use, they are basically resistors that change value based on how much their flexed. If they’re unflexed, the resistance is about ~25KΩ. When flexed all the way the resistance rises to ~100KΩ. You can use an analog input on a micro-controller (with a pull-up resistor) or a digital input with the use of a 0.1uF capacitor for RC timing.
