In this circuit, we will use a flex sensor to measure,
well, flex! A flex sensor uses carbon on a strip of
plastic to act like a variable resistor, but instead of
changing the resistance by turning a knob, you
change it by flexing (bending) the component. We
use a "voltage divider" again to detect this change in
resistance. The sensor bends in one direction and the
more it bends, the higher the resistance gets; it has a
range from about 10K ohm to 35K ohm. In this
circuit we will use the amount of bend of the flex
sensor to control the position of a servo.
