Full disclosure: Logitech provided me with a G Pro Racing Wheel ($999) and Racing Pedals ($349) which include a load-cell brake.

Using the ever-popular Arduino Uno, the feeder is connected to a platform that uses load cells to detect the pet’s weight. The weight data is then used to identify which animal is looking for food.

It is now possible to simultaneously monitor six dimensions using a load cell. • The world of 6DoF load cells is characterized more by customization than by standards. • Multiaxis load cells ...

Most load cells on the market use a cantilever outfitted with strain gages to measure loads.
