force-sensing resistor 3 Articles . ... Two 16-channel multiplexers were needed to consolidate the inputs for the Arduino that’s running the show, and a whole bunch of wall warts power everything.

An FSR is just what it sounds like – a sensitive resistor that changes its resistance with applied force. So if you press it, its resistance changes. Since the FSR changes its resistance with force, ...

The force sensitive resistors used – here’s a link provided by [Johann] – have a maximum operating temperature of 70° C, while the bed temperature when printing with ABS is around 130° C.
