Here is some information about what membrane potentiometers are and some examples of what they can be used for: Potentiometers Minneapolis MN
What Is A Membrane Potentiometer?
A membrane potentiometer is a conductive printed polyester-based circuit that is typically used as a linear position or voltage dividing sensor. A two-position membrane potentiometer can also function as a rheostat. Membrane potentiometers can be made in a wide range of shapes from a single linear and radial potentiometer to containing several sensing elements within a single sensor. With a profile as thin as .019″, these sensors can also be fully integrated right into your control panel alongside other interactive elements such as membrane keys, displays, LED indicator lights, and more.
