Burnt

Rotary Membrane Sensor

* Experiment on the sensor, arduino and maxMSP program given by Eng Tat.

* Assembling : the same method for the LDR. 5 Volts (arduino) run through the resistor and one of the leg of the sensor. The middle leg and the other leg of the resistor go to the analogPin (here it goes to pin 0, depends on the pin set in the arduino program), the last leg of the sensor goes to the ground (arduino).

   

* The sensor was burnt. (Just below the inner circle, the two dark brown dots).

* Checking the range of resistance of the sensor is important.

* Use too low resistance resistor will make the sensor burnt. (safe to use = 1KΩ to 10KΩ).
