Abstract

A pressure sensing device having a first sensing element, a second sensing element and a sensing circuit. The first and second sensing elements have one or more piezoresistive materials. The first sensing element has a first gradient along a longitudinal axis thereof having a first direction. The second sensing element has a second gradient along a longitudinal axis thereof having a second direction. The first direction of the first gradient is opposite to the second direction of the second gradient. The sensing circuit is (a) coupled to the first and second sensing elements and (b) arranged to sense at least one out of resistance and conductance of the first and second sensing elements to determine a magnitude and a location of a pressure applied on the first and second sensing elements along the longitudinal axes thereof.
