Hi,
I am an artist who is looking to conduct experiments on a colony of ants. I want to create sensor pads which will pick up whether an ant has walked over them (I would need a lot of sensors in a relatively small area). After doing some research I’ve gathered that force sensitive resisters might be an effective and possibly cheap way of me achieving this, however, my research so far has led me to believe that many of the standard models won’t pick up such a small weight (on average, 1-5 milligrams). Are there force sensitive resistors that are able to pick up such a small force? And if not, are there any other ways that you think I can achieve this?
Thank you,
Nick
