-A Spectra Symbol Flex Sensor 4.5″ Bend Sensor for Hand Gesture Recognition is a easy resistive sensor that is 4.5″ in duration but a powerful sensor to experience the power.
-As the sensor is flexed, the resistance across the sensor increases.
-The resistance of the flex sensor adjustments while the steel pads are on the outside of the bend (the text on the interior of bend).
-The connector is 0.1″ spaced and bread board friendly.
-Check the datasheet for full specs.

-The flex sensor is a bend detecting sensor which has were given numerous packages in robotics, clinical and haptic generation.
-The resistance of these sensors modifications in accordance with the bend, which can be measured the usage of any microcontroller.
-Note: The base of the sensor is sensitive to bending and can get damaged.
-Make positive that you bend handiest the sensing region.

// Change these constants according to your project's design

const float VCC = 5; // voltage at Ardunio 5V line

const float R_DIV = 47000.0; // resistor used to create a voltage divider

}


void loop() {

// Read the ADC, and calculate voltage and resistance from it

int ADCflex = analogRead(flexPin);

float Vflex = ADCflex * VCC / 1023.0;

float Rflex = R_DIV * (VCC / Vflex - 1.0);

Serial.println("Resistance: " + String(Rflex) + " ohms");


// Use the calculated resistance to estimate the sensor's bend angle:

float angle = map(Rflex, flatResistance, bendResistance, 0, 90.0);

Serial.println("Bend: " + String(angle) + " degrees");

Serial.println();
