Description: Square Force-Sensitive Resistor (FSR) - Original: 1. An FSR is a variable resistor that changes its resistance based on applied force or pressure, making it ideal for tactile sensing applications in IoT projects. This description focuses on the original square type FSR. 2. Shape and Size: The square FSR has a dimensions of approximately 0.8 x 0.8 inches (21 x 21 mm), making it compact and easy to integrate into various projects. 3. Resistive Range: These sensors have a resistive range between 50-10,000 Ohms, which can be adjusted depending on the specific application requirements. 4. Applications: Widely used in force sensing, pressure sensing, weight measurement, and user interface design in various IoT projects such as robotics, automation, and interactive displays. 5. Sensitivity: The square FSR offers excellent sensitivity, typically between 0.2-1 gm/V, allowing for accurate detection of even subtle changes in force or pressure. 6. Linear Response: This type of FSR has a linear r
