[edit] Summary

A strain gauge, typically glued onto a sample of material to measure its deformation. The blue material is a conductor, so current must flow through the narrow vertical channels. If the gauge is stretched vertically, the channels get longer and narrower. This increases the gauge's electrical resistance, which can be measured to work out the strain.
