[Curious Scientist] tried building an integrated strain gauge on a PCB, but ran into problems. Mainly, the low resistance of the traces didn’t show enough change under strain to measure easily.

The full bridge strain gaged construction provides an electrical output compatible with any electronics designed for a strain gaged transducer. The magnetic base furnished with the gage can be mounted ...

The stock crank arms are carefully fitted with two pairs of tiny strain gauges. The gauges are wired in a Wheatstone bridge arrangement, with one gauge in each pair mounted perpendicular to the ...
