I'm trying to build a sensitive tactile sensor.  Something that is reliable
down to, say, a few g/cm^2.  It must be fairly thin, and it would be nice
if it were flexible.  I've tried some sensors from a company called Interlink
in Santa Barbara.  They would have been perfect, except they didn't work well
at low pressures (not very repeatable - they seem to have some hysterisis due
to their design).  Maximum pressure will be small.

Ideas?
