Pressure sensor hand activation
More than two years ago I bought two cheap DF9-16 pressure sensors, feeling it should be interesting to explore using them to control movements, and I finally tested them!
The sensor is placed in a small 3D printed case, whose velcro straps push down on a TPU printed "cover", applying pressure on the sensor when the forearm muscles move, which happen when closing the fingers.
I was quite happy with the results!
