Abstract: This article presents a strain gauge-based force sensor with three ranges based on compliant mechanisms. Different from the traditional force sensors with rigid mechanisms, the force sensor ...

Flexible skin-attachable strain-gauge sensors are an essential component in the development of artificial systems that can mimic the complex characteristics of the human skin. In general, such sensors ...

While developing a vacuum system used for homemade PVD sputtering aparatus I felt the need of a simple and cheap vacuum gauge that can measure pressures as low as 1 Pa. I was not able to find online a ...
