How to Use a Force Sensor with an Arduino (Lesson #23)

This video tutorial explains how to use a force sensitive resistor with an Arduino to detect pressure. It covers the physical properties of the sensor, its limitations for precise measurements, and how to set up a circuit using a voltage divider. The tutorial includes a demonstration in Tinkercad to simulate sensor behavior and a detailed walkthrough of the Arduino code for reading sensor values. The video concludes with a recap and tips for effective sensor use.

What happens to the voltage reading when pressure is applied to the force sensitive resistor?
