Materials:
- Arduino UNO
- Jumper wires
- 10k resistors (The colors on it are brown , black, orange and gold)
- Flex sensor
- Breadboard
- Bluetooth module
- Construct the MDF parts and tape the flex sensor to your hand.
- Open “e4_exercise_sensor” from the examples.
- Upload the sketch to the Uno.
- Open the Serial Monitor and test it by attaching the sensor to one of your fingers and lifting the dumbbell to see the counter change.
