Pressure sensor

Hi guys!

I'm currently working in a project using force sensor on the ground to get the amount of weight applied in one area.

So I found one sensor that can handle 100 lb (on sparkfun), but this is not enough, once I need to measure 10 to 12 people in the same area. I though to use one slider potentiometer + a spring to measure how much a plataform has been pushed.

Any ideas?

Find a cheap electronic bathroom scale; somewhere inside that should be (unless it is really cheaply made) a force sensor designed for people weights...
