Thanks a ton for your replys and insight everyone. This is a hypothetical problem that answers a lot of questions I have about piezo sensors and my application. I now know what direction I need to move in my research. Its not for school - haven't been a student in some time. Thanks for your...
Hey everyone, thanks for the replies. I want to measure weight, not impact force, just resting weight when the sphere finally comes to a complete stop. I need to know if piezo works for this, and if not then why. I don't need alternative solutions.
The sphere must be the measurement device. I...
[highlight #FCE94F]Sorry - height is actually variable, but around 1ft. I also have no way of knowing what orientation the sphere will be in when it makes contact with the plane.[/highlight]
Hi all - new here and new to piezoelectric force sensing technology
I need to measure the weight of a sphere dropped onto a flat plane from a height of 1 foot.
