The WisBlock Flex Sensor Module – RAK12016 is based on the Spectrasymbol FS-L-0095-103-ST flex sensor and measures bending or flexing by detecting changes in resistance.
 
The module includes an onboard ADC converter, allowing the bending data to be read directly over I²C, eliminating the need to use an analog input.
 
This sensor is ideal for:
 
Human–Machine Interfaces: Attach to a finger to create gesture controls
Industrial Safety Systems: Detect machine bending under stress
Wearable Technology: Monitor motion and movement
Robotics Applications: Capture joint angles and positions
 
Key Features & Benefits:
 
Spectrasymbol FS-L-0095-103-ST Sensor: Proven, reliable flex sensing
Direct I²C Output: No need for analog inputs
Compact WisBlock Form Factor: Easy integration
Multiple Applications: Wearables, HMIs, stress detection, robotics
Low Power Consumption: Suitable for battery-operated devices
 
Perfect for developers building motion interfaces, gesture controls, or mechanical stress monitoring systems.
