Finally, to solve his pet peeve of setting up and using the stock Z-probe, [Bruno] turned the entire print bed into a strain-gauge sensor. This took some doing, which the blog post details nicely ...

They can detect the direction of the wind at an accuracy rate of 99.5 percent using seven strain gauges and a convolutional neural network model. This breakthrough design was inspired by birds and ...

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 ...
