It would be better to implement this via a multiplexor brick (which contains a
circuit like this one:

and a similar brick that performs a similar function for multiplexing outputs.

You could also build a connector plate for multiple touch sensors, containing
this (entirely passive) design:

More Sensitive Touch Sensor

I think you're trying to say "analog touch sensor" or "pressure sensor" or
something like that. A touch sensor that tells you how hard it's being pushed.
Of course, we can build something like now using a rotation sensor, a lever and
a rubber band.

i was thinking from the bots and sensors arrays that i have used that maybe there should be a touch sensor that works in reverse positively, as in it's neutral position would be depressed and the trigger would be in an "out" position just an idea. (...) (25 years ago, 23-Aug-99, to lugnet.robotics)

I was wondering what people think should be changed if LEGO ever comes out with a RIS 2.0. Here are some of my ideas. More ports (4 in, 4 out) Better IR communication or radio comm. Sensors: Proximity Sensor Color Light Sensor More Sensitive Touch (...) (25 years ago, 17-Aug-99, to lugnet.robotics)
