Abstract

A method of calibrating a force sensing device comprises establishing an optimized force-resistance curve by obtaining a mean resistance of a plurality of force-resistance curves for a set of substantially similar force sensing devices and measuring calibration data of the force sensing device. The method applies a plurality of calibration points defined from the measuring step to the optimized force-resistance curve and adapts the optimized force-resistance curve to form an adapted force-resistance curve by interpolating the plurality of calibration points and determining a multiplier value for each calibration point.
