I finished assembling the breadboard circuit and testing it to see if it actually worked. The way how Arduino detects the inputs is via a voltage divider circuit, so when the flex sensor was being bent, there would be a different voltage drop. I had to test the other resistor I was using to ensure that the change in the ADC reading from the Arduino had sufficient range; if the other resistor was too small or large, there wouldn’t really be a noticeable change in resistance. I ended up asking for permission from a 220 TA to use the resistors they had in their lab as I asked Professor Tamal if there were available resistors around.<\/p>\n
