Making a pressure mapping sensor

sensor

I am trying to design and prototype a pressure mapping sensor to measure the force between two surfaces.

I prefer to use piezoresistive materials. I am thinking to use 4×4 cell; also I should try to use flexible material not to be broken under applied force.

Can anyone guide me or inform me of possible references, please?

Sensitronics sells an FSR matrix sensor array. FSR is in fact a piezoreistive material. It's 10x16, so bigger than your needs but good to consider.
