Description

The Adafruit 6379 stretch sensor is intended for experimental measurements of force and motion based on resistance changes occurring during stretching of the material. The cord is made of rubber impregnated with conductive carbon, causing its resistance to increase as its length increases. This solution is suitable for interactive projects, wearable electronics, motion-sensing prototypes and artistic installations.

The material can be stretched by approximately 50–70% relative to its resting length and gradually returns to its original shape once the force is released. The resistance characteristic is non-linear and may vary between production batches, therefore the sensor is intended for detecting changes and trends in stretching rather than for precise measurements. Additional elements included in the set allow quick assembly of a voltage divider and connection to an analog input of a microcontroller.
