The Grove-Round Force Sensor(FSR402) is a force-sensitive module. At the end of the sensor, there is a round force-sensitive resistor, the resistance depends on the pressure applied to this resistor. The greater the pressure, the smaller the resistance. However, the output of this sensor is not strictly linear, so we do not recommend it for accurate measurements. Typically used for automotive electronics, medical systems, industrial controls, robotics, and interactive educational toys.
