Inexpensive low profile linear sensors for facial muscles

Hi Folks.
Been quiet for a while - moving workshops and its taking a ling time. Anyway I was very impressed by the Facial Waldo's that  were on this channel  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bFW2azvVEdI   but wanted them smaller and more important wearable under the suit.
I am using an IR and Sensor combo - about $6 for 2, and a grayscale to create a surprisingly accurate sensor.

Enjoy.

  • That's a really cool solution.  I wonder what could be done to protect the strips from wear and tear so they keep reading accurately over extended use.   Super cool idea, I'll have to try that at some point!

  • Hi Chris.
    It's just laminated paper. So long as the lamination hold up and there is very little that affects that - then the system should last a long while.
