Go through these links-Hi
I need some advice on what kind of sensor to use with my ardruino. I need a sensor that will detect if the slightest of weight was dropped onto it. It doesnt need to measure the weight or do anything special.
So for example if a piece of paper was dropped onto the weight sensor it will register this and light up a LED thats it. Ive found a ton of load sensor etc, but nothing that will detect this light weight and for a reasonable price.
Any suggestions on parts?
Thanks in advanced guys.
