Weight sensors

[Dominic Macchio]

Hi, I would like to use a miniature weight sensor that would alert me when something has lost 50% of it's weight. Are there any publications that would be helpful for a novice? Thank you

load cells are the modern weight sensor ... you will feed the output to a microcontroller or similar

daveen told you what you're looking for. I would start Googleing load cell manufacturers and look at their
application information. That would be your best source. You'll find exactly what you're looking for, for your
needs.
