Abstract: The present invention switch comprises a pair of electrodes separated by resilient resistive material which changes resistance several orders of magnitude in response to light pressure. Sensing and amplifying means are provided to detect a predetermined change in resistance. An array of a plurality of such switches may be arranged in a switching matrix to provide any desired form of switch controls or a keyboard for numerous electronic applications.
