 The resistive material used may be quite different from one touch sensor to the next.  Some sensors use conductive ink or special plastics.  Cheap, home-made sensors may be constructed using conductive foam or even magnetic tape. The resistive material used may be quite different from one touch sensor to the next.  Some sensors use conductive ink or special plastics.  Cheap, home-made sensors may be constructed using conductive foam or even magnetic tape.

 +Note: Similar sensing can be accomplished with linear arrays of [[sensors:capacitive|capacitive touch]] sensors with more control over the sensing distance, but may require more development depending on the implementation chosen.
