DIY Torquemeter - How to measure torque! [Arduino & 3D Printed]

Correction: The power is actually 3.8 W and not 38 W. Ma Bad!

Torque is a very important part of the world around us.
Almost every machine around us uses levers in one way or another so it's important for engineers, designers, and builders, to be able to measure this rotational force.

In a general way, is possible to separate torque into 2 categories:

-Static Torque;

-Dynamic Torque;

Static torque is very easy to measure, so the core theme of this video is how to build a simple and cheap device capable of measuring dynamic torque or torque linked to a rotational speed.

The final result is a device that uses an Arduino, a load cell, some 3D Printed parts, and electrical components
to measure torque.
