 Note that our method takes the somewhat linear resistivity but does not provide linear voltage! That's because the voltage equasion is: Note that our method takes the somewhat linear resistivity but does not provide linear voltage! That's because the voltage equasion is:

 That is, the voltage is proportional to the **inverse** of the FSR resistance. That is, the voltage is proportional to the **inverse** of the FSR resistance.
