Hello Guys!
I bought this Touch Sensor for a Project and I need to connect it with my Arduino. How can I do it? Also I need to connect two of them to the Arduino... Due to the Pandemic I depend on online help and forums like this and I'm an absolute beginner so please explain for dummies and thank you very very much for your help! :))
That is called a "Force Sensitive Resistor", or "FSR".

Do you have a resistor of 10k ?
Hey hey! Thank you very much for your help!
No i dont have the 10k resisitor... I guess I should get them now?
I want to connect two of these FSR's to the Arduino to switch on a motor
Yes, you need resistors, and a breadboard and jumper wires.
Good companies, such as Adafruit, Sparkfun and Pololu sell things that work.
If you buy things at Amazon, Ebay or Aliexpress, then the breadboards have bad contacts and the jumper wires could be broken.
The FSR's are the input. What do you have for the output ? Between the Arduino board and the motor.
