Applications of Force Sensors

Automotive Industry: Force sensors measure the impact force during collisions, which helps in crash testing and ensuring vehicle safety. They also aid in research and testing to guarantee optimal performance and durability.

 

Medical Field: Force sensors find extensive use in the medical industry for various applications requiring precise force measurement. One notable application is in medical devices designed for rehabilitation and therapy, such as swallow therapy systems for stroke patients. These sensors, engineered with a silver conductive circuit on a poly substrate, accurately measure tongue pressure variations during therapy sessions. Clinicians rely on this data to assess patient progress with unparalleled accuracy, tailoring therapy programs to individual patient needs effectively. Additionally, the sensors’ high sensitivity and reliability make them suitable for other medical devices and human-machine interfaces where precise force measurements are crucial for optimal performance and patient safety. Read the full case study here.

 

Robotics: Force sensors, transducers, and force sensing resistors enable robots to interact effectively with their environment. They measure and control force in robotic arms for delicate tasks and ensure safe human-robot interactions by detecting excessive force.

 

The Working Principle Of Force Sensors

 
Construction

A flexible force sensor typically consists of a flexible substrate material, such as polymer or elastomer, embedded with conductive materials, like carbon or conductive ink. These materials form a conductive path across the sensor.

Resistance Variation

When pressure or force is applied to the sensor, the flexible substrate deforms, causing the conductive materials to come into closer contact or change their configuration. This deformation alters the resistance along the conductive path.

Electrical Measurement

The change in resistance is measured using electrical circuitry. Typically, the sensor is connected in a voltage divider circuit, where its resistance varies depending on the force applied. As the resistance changes, the voltage output across the sensor also changes.

Output Interpretation

The change in voltage output is then interpreted to determine the magnitude of the applied force. This can be done using analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) in microcontrollers or dedicated signal processing circuits.

Calibration

To ensure accurate force measurement, flexible force sensors often require calibration to establish a relationship between the applied force and the corresponding change in resistance or voltage output.

FAQ

 

Q: What does the force sensor do?

A: A force sensor measures mechanical forces, like a secret handshake between machines and the real world. These ingenious devices convert mechanical force into electrical signals, enabling us to measure, analyze, and interact with the physical world around us.

Q: Is a force sensor the same as a pressure sensor?

A: Force and pressure sensors are engineered with the same high technology, thin film strain gauge design. Available in similar materials as well, the main difference in the sensors is what the sensor is measuring and how it is doing so.

Q: What is the difference between a force sensor and a touch sensor?

A: The Force Sensor senses the resistance value depending on how much it has pressed. It can sense even the slightest touch, therefore you can use it as a touch sensor as well. The difference between this and Capacitive Sensor is that the object you touched doesn't need to be conductive as it is sensing force.
