Arduino: Flexiforce Sensor Test

[Aguinaldo06]

Thanks but this code is not working I think I'm doing something wrong, have you got any place where you have uploaded a picture of the system you made? cause in the video is hard to see the connections. Thanks

Sorry to bring you the bad news, but I don't have the circuit and mechanics anymore and didn't take any photos :( We did this as a school project and after shooting the video I disassembled the Flexiforce project. Hope you find answer from somewhere else!

@aku69 Thanks for the reply but it would be too late anyways as I already done my project and finished University, your video did help as when first time I seen it I knew that would be possible do what I wanted to do, and it was. Buy thanks anyways for the reply.

@Aguinaldo06 It's good to hear that this video helped you :)

Hi can you give me the code that you used please?

@Aguinaldo06

int flexiAnalogPin = 5; int ledPin = 13; int flexiVal = 0; void setup() { pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT); Serial.begin(9600); } void loop() { flexiVal = analogRead(flexiAnalogPin); Serial.println(flexiVal);

if(flexiVal >= 500){ digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH); } else{ digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW); } delay(1000); }
