Re: [IDEA] weight scale using pressure sensor on touchscreen

I bet it takes at least 3-4g before it registers anything, also, the program will have a hard time judging between WEIGHT and surface area, because all our screens really detect is surface area.

You would need a tray that on the phone, with a "nub" that touched the screen. Something that is consitant. Then you can go based on the increase in surface area from there, and get a weight.

Sounds like too much work to me.
