Resistive strain gauge device.
A strain gauge is a device for measuring an applied force. The electrical resistance or impedance of a strain gauge will change when a strain gauge element is stretched or compressed. Strain gauges are incorporated into electrical circuits designed to exploit the sensitivity of the strain gauge, so that the resulting change in electrical resistance is converted into a measurable voltage which can be sent to other electronics for further processing.
