Problem 1.

For each strain guage that is added to the wheatstone bridge the sensitivity is doubled each time.
Equations

Quater Bridge:


Half Bridge:


Full Bridge:


Each time that a strain gauge is added it adds another delta R to the numerator, thus doubling the sensitivity each time.

Demonstration of MPU 6050 Vibration Sensor

Problem 4.
Demonsration of Wireless Stepper Motor Driver

There was some delay in the steppr motor control. I believe that the system is sampling data faster than the slave is able to handle it. This is shown by the little to no delay upon motor start but a large delay on motor stop. I beleive the solution to this will be to match data sampling rates or clearing the cache more frequently.
