Piston A sealed piston / cylinder measures changes in pressure. Strain Gauge Strain gages (strain-sensitive variable resistors) are bonded to parts of the structure that deform as the pressure changes ...

Digital pressure gages that include a bridge circuit also use a diaphragm, but to detect changes in capacitance. Typically, strain gages or strain-sensitive variable resistors are used as elements in ...

The Series 2 digital force gauges from Mark-10 Corp. are designed for basic tension and compression force testing ...

The TorqSense SGR521 transducer from Sensor Technology now includes Ethernet output alongside its existing RS232 and USB ...

[Curious Scientist] tried building an integrated strain gauge on a PCB, but ran into problems. Mainly, the low resistance of the traces didn’t show enough change under strain to measure easily.

leading to digital eye strain, or sometimes called the computer vision syndrome. The symptoms, including dry eyes, blurred ...

This increased screen exposure, however, brings with it a growing concern – digital eye strain. Digital eye strain, also ...

Here’s a neat trick for your next 3D-printer build or retrofit: a Z-axis sensor using a DIY strain gauge made from SMD resistors. We’re betting it could have plenty of other applications ...
