Load Cells have been used for many years in professional applications such as machinery that needs very consistent results time and time again. Now, recently, there has been a new wave of uses for a load cell. One of these applications is in the pedals for video games like sim racing and flight simulators. The older style pedals do not feel realistic at all and for people who are using these games as training simulators, this takes away a lot of the immersion factor. Thankfully, there are many companies that are putting load cells in the pedals to make them feel realistic. Now the brake pedal in a car or the rudder pedals on a virtual aircraft will feel much more like the real thing. Load cell sensors also last much longer so you do not have to worry about the sensor failing after just a few short years of use.
