Force Sensing Resistor A force sensitive resistor, sometimes called a force sensing resistor or abbreviated to FSR, is a staple element in any computer mediated haptics system. They are a specialised type of resistor whose resistance changes when a force or pressure is applied. Below, we offer a selection of links from our resource databases which may match this term.
