Hello, I am new to the forums. I have been reading through different posts and there is a great volume of good information found here so I thought I would try to get some help
I've looked all over the internet trying to find a company that sells pressure sensors or some sort of switch that will turn on when pressure is applied to it. The application that I am using is in the sense of lights. Basically I need a switch that will activate a light when the weight of about .5lbs is applied to it. I am building a table and when say a cup (filled with liquid) is set in a certain small area, an LED will illuminate. When the cup is removed, the light will turn off. Hopefully this is possible. Thanks in advance.
