Merlin Stretch Sensor
The Merlin Stretch Sensor uses the latest 'Smart' material technology to give a uniquely flexible sensor, which can literally take measurements bent around corners or be woven into fabric.
- Flexible sensor, bends around corners!
- Small form factor - 2mm cord
- Economical.
What is it?
The Stretch Sensor is a flexible cylindrical cord with spade electrical fixings at each end. The sensor behaves like a variable resistor: the more you stretch it, the higher the resistance.
How does it work?
As the length of the Stretch Sensor alters, so does its resistance. For each centimeter of length change there is a resistance change of approximatly 400 Ohms/cm.
