Hi all,

Can anyone advise who manufactures a pressure sensor that looks like fly swatter?? The head of the sensor can be placed between two objects and will measure the pressure (for example to measure the pressure on a car door seal when the door is closed).

Thanks in advance.

 

Check out the Flexiforce sensor. the URL is:

There is a product out there for detecting pressure which may be useful... it is a pressure sensitive film (one time usage) which changes colour according to the pressure applied to the film. Its not the "fly swatter" that you mentioned but maybe this could be useful. A scanning and interpretation device/program is also available to co-relate the color to actual PSI applied.
