Hey! Here is a long stretch question for me as total noob - Is it possible to use arduino for sending Midi signal with velocity value related to pressure instead of lights?
Hi - plenty of things are possible with Arduino but we don't have our own tutorial on that, you may be better off asking on the official Arduino forums.
Can we control servo based on if signal> treshhold move servo to 180? or it needs to be mapped from 0-1023 and move proportionally? and please whats the lowest in grams can this sensor measure? Thank you
Hi - yes you can control a servo with an IF statement. You would need to look up the datasheet for the specific sensor you're buying to find out its range and resolution.
Hi - we don't have any immediate plans to make an encoder video, but it's on our list for the future! You should be able to find other Arduino encoder videos on RUclips though.
You could have the arrangement of the voltage divider with the fixed resistor reversed. If you switch which end is connected to +5V and which end is connected to GND that should flip the numbers.
Most Arduino code works on different versions of the board, but we haven't tried our tutorials on anything but the UNO so cannot say for sure. You may get a better answer to this question in the official Arduino forums.
how to connect multiple of these fsr sensors tho?
where to find the packaging for these sensors, like rubber buttons or silicone buttons
What is the nominal resistance of type 402? Which is written |||IFSR_||||18||

Will it work on a punching bag set up or is that specialised sensor needed. Thanks in advance.
These sensors may not hold up very well to repeated impact over time, but we haven't tried!

why do you initialize serial communication?
This is useful for printing to the serial terminal for seeing the sensor values.
make a video about encoder please

Hello , can i know the diameter and sensitivity of this FSR sensor ?
What could I be doing wrong where my numbers start high and go down as force is applied?

Will this same setup and code work on teensy 4.1?
