Make and use your own pressure sensors, to control a servo, and LED brightness. ⭐
This kit contains supplies to make 4 or 5 sensors, depending on their size and shape. You'll have conductive fabric and felt left over too!
Make a sensor in any shape you want. You could sew them into a sock on the heel, for pressure when walking, or into a back jeans pocket for pressure when sitting... and a lot more!
This is our kit to make and practice with pressure sensors. You'll be able to use a pressure sensor to control servo movement, and light an LED with altering brightness.
To make the flex sensor you'll get:
Gemma M0
Velostat 15 x 9 cm (may vary)
Conductive Fabric 210 x 210mm
Conductive Thread 7m
Felt 9" x 12" piece (color will vary, thistle, teal, silver, purple)
Needle / Threader / Thread
LEDs x 5 / resistors
Servo motor 180 degrees
Resistor 10K x 5
Instructions as PDF & code
The LEDs will be of various colors, and the felt color may also be different than pictured.
